Ukrainian finance minister calls on MPs to pass 4 bills on July 14 needed to get $3.2 bln in financing

Finance Minister of Ukraine Natalie Jaresko has called on the Verkhovna Rada to support four bills at its plenary session on Tuesday, July 14, which is required for obtaining $3.2 billion in financing.

"This week, unfortunately, we were not able to move forward in adopting 4 very important draft laws that will help Ukraine to protect people's savings, to improve our energy sector, and to help to proceed in our relations with the IMF, the World Bank, as well as to receive loans from Japan and Germany," Jaresko wrote on her "Facebook" page.

These four draft laws open up $3.2 billion in financing for Ukraine, the Finance Minister said.

"Thus we urge MPs to adopt these bills first thing on July 14th – as soon as the next plenary session begins," the minister addressed lawmakers.

As reported, the parliament is expected to vote for changes to the laws on housing and utilities services (No. 2029a), on improving the deposit guarantee system and withdrawing insolvent banks from the market (No. 2045a), on lifting the moratorium on the forced sale of property of the debtors of Naftogaz Ukrainy (No. 2956), as well as a bill regarding the activities of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (Nos. 2873).
