Ukraine's Cabinet of Ministers has approved the budget of the Pension Fund for 2017 with a deficit of around UAH 142 billion.

An Interfax-Ukraine correspondent has reported that the decision was made at a government meeting on Wednesday.

"The subsidy we are sending from the national budget to the Pension Fund is cut from UAH 145 billion to UAH 141.2 billion," Social Policy Minister Andriy Reva said at the meeting.
