The Finance Ministry of Ukraine expects that a first draft of the program for Ukraine's cooperation with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) will be ready by the end of this week.

"We're holding consultations almost every day and we've switched from the assessment stage to the stage of drawing up the economic financial aid [plan]. We plan to inform you about the first draft agreement reached with the IMF before your visit to Brussels," Finance Minister Oleksandr Shlapak said at a cabinet meeting on Wednesday, addressing Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk.
