The Economic Development and Trade Minister of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko has said that one of the priorities of Ukraine's economic policy in 2013 will be the full restoration of cooperation with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

“Agreeing the issue of budget deficits, macroeconomic indicators, and
the feasibility of the budget is one of the key elements of this
