IMF sees risks to further cooperation with Ukraine

There is a risk to further cooperation under the Extended Fund Facility Arrangement (EFF) between the International Monetary Fund and Ukraine.

IMF Resident Representative in Ukraine Jerome Vacher said this in an exclusive commentary to Ukrinform.

"We are entering difficult times, difficult situation. There is a need for responsible policy to keep moving the chosen path. We see certain risks to the IMF program," Vacher said.

According to him, Ukraine’s budgetary policies should be consistent with the objectives that have been agreed in the program between Ukraine and the Fund.
