KIEV, Nov. 21 – The resumption of cooperation between Ukraine and the International Monetary Fund does not require anything new, and depends on the Ukrainian authorities' willingness to complete the tasks stipulated in the current frozen program [Stand-by Arrangement], IMF Resident Representative in Ukraine Max Alier said at the third Ukrainian Investment Forum in Kiev on Wednesday.

According to Alier, to secure the fund's support, it is important for the government to take actions that will not only ensure economic stability in Ukraine, but also create conditions for the expansion of cooperation between the country and other investors and financial institutions such as the World Bank, the International Finance Corporation, and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development.
