Ukrainian Finance Minister Oleksandr Danyliuk said this live on the Channel 5 TV Channel.

"I believe that this mission, this visit was effective," the head of the Finance Ministry said.

"On some issues, we have achieved progress. On others, for example, on the anti-corruption court and the energy reform - there is some progress, but the final agreement was not reached," Danyliuk said.

The minister stresses that the work with the IMF continues and will continue, and the Government together with the Parliament will take a number of decisions necessary primarily for Ukraine.

"I hope that we will continue to follow the path of reforms, and our colleagues will support us," the finance minister said.
