KIEV, April 19 – Ukraine will stay in the Extended Fund Facility (EFF) arrangement with the International Monetary Fund and the country is ready to continue reforms, the National Bank of Ukraine said after a trip of NBU Governor Valeriya Gontareva to take part in Spring Meetings of the IMF and the World Bank Group.
