KIEV, Sept. 11 – The International Monetary Fund hopes that the Ukrainian authorities will conduct the necessary legal proceedings to raise gas prices for households in time and will take steps to protect the most vulnerable sections of the population in this connection.
"An important element of the agreement is that gas prices increases for households will be complemented by a social safety net to protect the most vulnerable in society," Senior Advisor at IMF External Relations Department David Hawley said in Washington on Thursday.
