KIEV, April 14 – Ukraine cannot count on financing for the upgrade of its obsolete industrial sector and will have to go through a period of rapid structural reform, according to World Bank Country Director for Ukraine, Belarus and Moldova Martin Raiser.

"[Ukraine] will have to relax barriers to entering the market and complete business activities that would allow the redistribution of existing resources," he said in his article in the Dzerkalo Tyzhnya weekly newspaper.
