amid “fruitful meetings” in Washington this week, Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal told reporters on Friday.
“The international partners have reassured us of their long-term support,” Mr Shmyhal said, describing his meetings in Washington, and referring to total financing of US$115 billion over the next four years that was leveraged by the IMF’s approval last month of a US$15.6 billion loan. US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who paid a surprise visit to Kyiv in February and met with Mr Shmyhal again on Thursday, repeatedly urged finance ministers and central banks to maintain support for Ukraine, the Treasury Department said.
He urged the Group of Seven advanced economies to reaffirm their support for Ukraine and discuss the confiscation issue during an upcoming leaders summit in Japan, which is leading the G-7 this year.
