President of Ukraine and IMF Managing Director agreed to elaborate a roadmap of the top-priority reforms

President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko had a phone conversation with IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde.

The Head of State emphasized that Ukraine would continue reforms despite the crisis in relations between the Government and the parliamentary coalition. The President highlighted the necessity of refreshing the Cabinet of Ministers without early parliamentary elections that will only deepen the political crisis and deteriorate the conditions for reforms.

Petro Poroshenko stressed his willingness to carry out decisive actions to ensure political and financial stability in the state.

The parties agreed to elaborate a roadmap of the top-priority reforms that will give a boost to the Ukraine-IMF relations. They also agreed on the necessity of urgent adoption of all reformist laws by the Parliament.
