”Our international reserves are actively growing, mainly due to the purchase of foreign currency. As of today they make up $17.6 billion,” Churiy said on Thursday, May 25.
As UNIAN reported, Ukraine`s international reserves as of May 1, 2017, amounted to $17.175 billion which is 13.57%, or $2.052 billion, up from April 1.
