Let’s recall that on October 1, the IMF mission began meeting with representatives of the Ukrainian authorities, as well as with other key partners.

As you know, in March the IMF approved a four-year financing package for Ukraine worth $15.6 billion. In total, this year Ukraine has the opportunity to receive three tranches from the fund totaling $4.5 billion. On July 3, it became known that Ukraine received $890 million from the IMF. At the same time, the Ukrainian authorities must implement a number of structural beacons to continue funding.
