KIEV, April 16 – External financing risks are unlikely to significantly abate soon in spite of the government's plan to restructure $15.3 billion of its private external debt service, Moody's Investors Service had said.

"Ukraine's liquidity position will likely remain severely constrained in the coming years because of the country's structural current account deficit and weak foreign reserve assets, while the government's budget will be stretched by the deep economic contraction and the ongoing costs of the military conflict against pro-Russian separatists in the east of the country," Moody's said.
