The Finance Ministry says it has reached agreement with the IMF on the size of Ukraine’s 2021 budget deficit. By postponing an increase in the minimum wage to the end of next year and taking other measures, the Ministry cut $1 billion off the $47 billion budget, reducing the proposed deficit from 6% to 5.5%. The budget must be approved in December. To restart the IMF agreement, the Rada has to pass laws to restore and protect anti-corruption agencies.
