On June 20, 2005, the Executive Board of the UN Development Program and the UN Fund for Population Activities considered the draft cooperation program with Ukraine for 2006 to 2010 with a budget worth USD80m, Ukraine's foreign ministry has reported. Compared with two prior programs, the document enlarges the interaction sphere and increases the size of financial aid, RBC reported.

According to Viktor Kryzhanovsky, Ukraine's permanent representative to the UN, the document meets the Ukrainian government's aims at integration into Europe. Kryzhanovsky stressed the need to enhance cooperation with the UNDP in the sphere of fighting AIDS and removing consequences of the Chernobyl disaster.

The draft program has been prepared by the UN mission in Kiev in cooperation with the Ukrainian government. The UNDP Executive Board is expected to ratify it in the near future. The program's budget for 2002-2005 envisaged around USD15m.
