This was reported by RBC-Ukraine regarding Bloomberg.

According to the publication, representatives of Ukraine and the IMF expect to reach an agreement with the staff this Thursday. However, the agreement still needs to be ratified by the IMF Executive Board.

The payment will be a backup plan in case the United States fails to assist. It will be the first of four that Ukraine expects this year, totaling $5.4 billion.

It is worth noting that this is the first time the IMF has lent to a country at war.
