"The National Reforms Council not only supported this bill, but also recommended considering it as urgent, as the document is extremely important for developing the market and moving Ukraine towards free flow of capital," he said at a press conference in Kyiv on Monday.

Churiy said that the bill has been supported by the majority of market players. Lawyers are working on the final document making technical remarks. This document will be submitted to the Verkhovna Rada and the President of Ukraine will speak about it.
