KIEV (Sputnik) – Earlier in the day, Danylyuk met with US Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey R. Pyatt to discuss pressing issues of further cooperation between the Finance Ministry and the US government.
"The US government, along with the Finance Ministry, will continue to implement a two-year program of funding the consulting services to reform the Ukrainian Customs Service, initiated by the previous [Finance] Minister Natalia Yaresko. As part of this program, the United States will provide $4 million to attract international advisers, who will help introduce the world’s highest quality service at the Ukrainian Customs," the finance minister wrote on his Facebook page.
