Viktor Yanukovych emphasized that the terms on which the county cooperates with the IMF are certainly important. "We will never borrow at interest rates the previous government did; 27, 28% is absurdity. This is a question that will have to be addressed. We now take credits at interest rates ranging from 5.7% to about 6.5%.”
The President called the IMF an "indicator" of the global financial banking system. "If the IMF is working with a country, has a program with it, it means that there is trust. This means that this country can meet its obligations, that it is competitive," he said.
