KYIV, Jan 22 – Ukraine still needs financial support of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), although the new three-year Extended Fund Facility (EFF), preliminarily agreed at the end of last year with the IMF managers, could become the last program with the IMF, Finance Minister Oksana Markarova has said.

"The IMF program, according to which we reached an agreement at the management level, is required for three years. However, having fully completed it, there is a chance to leave the IMF," the Finance Minister wrote on her Facebook page on Tuesday evening.
