The Union of the IMF and Ukraine cost the last. Literally, Kiev gave the IMF $ 1.268 billion to the treasury, and received only $ 169 million. This was reported in the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU). According to the regulator, for the year of 2017, Nezalezhnaya gave about $ 1.3 billion. At the same time received in the form of 1 billion dollars, they write "Ukrainian News". Earlier it was reported that the European Commission had refused to disburse the third tranche of macro-financial assistance, Prior to that, Ukraine received two tranches for a total of € 1.2 billion from the € 1.8 billion loan under the financial assistance program.

The current program term ends in early January 2018. For two years, received financial assistance of $ 8.7 billion instead of the promised $ 17.5 billion. The next tranche of $ 1.9 billion was due in the summer or early autumn, but the fund postponed the allocation of funds, demanding first take in the non-vital pension reform, raise gas prices and start work on creating an anti-corruption court. Pension reform has already been approved, but with gas prices and an anti-corruption court much more difficult.
