The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has approved the draft national budget for 2019 and sent it to the Verkhovna Rada.

An Interfax-Ukraine correspondent has reported that after the presentation of the draft national budget held by Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman at a meeting on Friday, the government decided to approve the draft.

"We will work with the [parliamentary] committees and factions to have the budget feasible. One cannot boost the budget not supported by the money. Otherwise, this could result in crises," Groysman said.
