Met with the Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund Kristalina Georgieva in Washington during the IMF and World Bank Spring Meetings... Informed the Managing Director about our joint steps with people's deputies to pass the first review. The Verkhovna Rada adopted legislation on military tax and taxation of electronic platforms, and the competition for the head of the State Customs Service has been completed. We are ready to work further on de-shadowing businesses, implementing reforms, and expanding Ukraine's investment attractiveness. We are looking forward to the IMF mission's visit to Kyiv in May.
