KIEV, March 20 - The Board of Directors of the International Monetary Fund has slightly postponed a meeting, initially scheduled for Monday, to discuss completion of the third review of its extended fund facility program for Ukraine, the Ukrainian Finance Ministry said on its website.

"The meeting has been postponed only because of the need to clarify the calculation of the economic consequences of the measures Ukraine introduced in response to the blockade and seizure of Ukrainian enterprises in the non-government-controlled areas of Donetsk and Luhansk regions, and also in light of the Russian recognition of documents issued in those areas," the ministry said.
