Ukraine's government sends 2018 budget to parliament: Key benchmarks

"We are now sending a draft budget to the parliament. I guess some politicians will start criticizing it immediately today. While they are criticizing, we'll be building kindergartens and roads. I'm calling on Ukrainians to do their thing and make their lives better, without listening to those who want to discourage them. No discouraging, only moving forward," Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman commented on the decision.
