The Verkhovna Rada will start consideration of the draft law on the state budget for 2021 in the next plenary week, parliamentary speaker Dmytro Razumkov said.

"If something extraordinary does not happen, then ... on the second [of November] we will have a conciliatory council, and on the third November we will have a plenary week. I think that on the first days we should move on to considering the budget for 2021," Razumkov told reporters in Kyiv on Sunday.

At the same time, the speaker did not rule out that the difficult epidemiological situation in Ukraine could affect the work of the Verkhovna Rada.

"But so far we are not planning to change the working schedule. We will consider, proceed from the situation that will unfold on November 2-3," Razumkov stressed.
