KIEV, May 11 – Ukraine's Cabinet of Ministers at a meeting on Wednesday extended the state of emergency in the electricity market introduced three months ago for one more month.

"We need to expand [the state of emergency] as we are to make quick managerial decisions: unfortunately, we manage the system not as usual. We will pass this test, no matter whoever impede us," Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman said at a government meeting on Thursday.
