KIEV, June 19 – Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk has called on lawmakers to quickly pass the laws required for the provision of the second tranche of $1.7 billion under the IMF Extended Fund Facility (EFF) program to Ukraine, to ensure that the IMF Board can make the decision to provide the funds before July 10.

"I hope that during this week the parliamentary coalition would submit draft laws that have not been passed today for second reading, as by July 10 we are to come to the meeting of the IMF Board to receive the next tranche," he said in the parliament on Thursday.
