Ukraine's cabinet submits four EU/IMF-linked reform bills to unlock €1.45 billion tranche
Ukraine's Cabinet of Ministers approved and sent to the Verkhovna Rada four draft laws tied to the country's obligations to the EU and IMF. The bills are a condition for receiving the third tranche of EU macro-financial assistance worth €1.45 billion and cover VAT administration, transfer pricing, capital markets, and the High Anti-Corruption Court. Prime Minister Serhiy Koretskyi announced the submission and said joint work by government and parliament is needed to secure a significant portion of $29.5 billion in expected partner assistance.
