With the IMF team scheduled to fly out of Kyiv on Wednesday, negotiators are working to hammer out a new 18-month standby deal that would replace the current $17.5 billion assistance program, Iryna Lutsenko, the president’s parliamentary representative said Friday on the sidelines of the YES Meeting. The current program expires in March, the month of Ukraine’s presidential election. The standby would stretch through the end of next year, providing a financial bridge over parliamentary elections next fall. Later at the conference, Prime Minister Groysman said Saturday the government will raise household gas prices. He said his political fate is less important than the country’s.
