The U.S. Government provides financial support to Ukraine in the form of government guarantees worth $ 2 billion.
The corresponding declaration has been signed by finance minister of Ukraine Natalie Jaresko and U.S. Treasury Secretary Jacob Joseph Lew, an Ukrinform correspondent has reported.
“Today, the United States and Ukraine have signed a declaration on cooperation in field of loan guarantees. The United States provides Ukraine with loan guarantees worth $ 2 billion. This will allow Ukraine to more actively implement the already started reforms and to attract foreign financial loans under more favorable conditions for Ukraine,” Jaresko said.
The U.S. assistance is part of a wider package of international support to Ukraine for implementing reforms and restoring financial stability.
Earlier, the U.S. Department of the Treasury announced that the United States intended to allocate $ 1 billion government loan guarantees to Ukraine in the first half of 2015, provided that Ukraine complied with the reform program, agreed on with the IMF.
