KIEV, Jan. 26 – The inclusion of PrivatBank eurobonds in bail-in procedures during its nationalization is fully consistent with Ukrainian law, agreed with the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, and the National Bank of Ukraine is ready to defend this position in international court, NBU Governor Valeriya Gontareva stated.

"This is the state's position, we will defend it. I do not see any problem to meet in court with these investors. This is the right of investors to contest, while our right is to prove they are professional investors and should not rely on taxpayers' money," she said at a press conference in Kiev.
