Although the IMF review mission stayed in Kyiv for half of the expected two weeks, it left Wednesday on a positive note. “The IMF staff team has had very productive discussions with the Ukrainian authorities, including with President Zelenskiy,” team leader Ron van Rooden said Thursday. “The team has found that fiscal and monetary policies remain on track, and it stands ready to return to Kyiv to continue discussions after the forthcoming parliamentary elections as soon as a new government has clarified its policy intentions.”
