Ukraine’s Cabinet approves priority action plan until 2020

The decision was made at the Cabinet’s meeting on Monday, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

According to Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysman, the priority action plan contains five main goals. The first one, as noted by the PM, is to build competitive economy and ensure annual sustainable economic growth at the level of 4-5% of GDP. Groysman stressed that the implementation of the plan was aimed at creating "strong public service", developing human capital (increasing life expectancy of Ukrainians, minimizing poverty), ensuring the rule of law and fighting corruption. The Prime Minister also noted that the priority of the document was to ensure security and defense, both external and internal, "starting from military aggression and other manifestations of aggression towards Ukraine and ending with the internal food safety and security of citizens on the streets."
