On January 12, 2018, in the framework of a working visit to the United States of America, Minister of Finance of Ukraine Oleksandr Danyliuk met with US Treasury Secretary Stephen Mnuchin.

The meeting concerned the discussion of the course of economic reforms in Ukraine, the issues of support for our country by the United States, the US sanctions policy in support of Ukraine's territorial integrity and sovereignty, the status of cooperation with the IMF, as well as the progress in combating corruption and initiatives to improve the business climate in Ukraine for the last three years.

"We are grateful to the United States for strengthening economic sanctions, which are considered an effective tool to contain Russia's aggression. Ukraine continues to implement reforms that give a positive result, and through this we have already managed to regain economic growth. We still have a lot to do to make our economy stronger and more resistant to crises. In this way, the US support is important," said Oleksandr Danyliuk.

US Treasury Secretary Stephen Mnuchin noted that the United States will continue to support Ukraine in implementing the necessary reforms for the country.
