KYIV, Sept 21 - There is every reason to talk about the recovery of the Ukrainian economy, President Petro Poroshenko said.

"A year and a half ago the economic situation in Ukraine was so dire that we could only dream about macroeconomic stabilization. Now we have all grounds to say that economic recovery is in place," he said at the general debate of the 72nd session of the UN General Assembly in New York on Wednesday, September 20.
