President Petro Poroshenko expects Ukraine to improve its position in the Doing Business rating of the World Bank this year by at least 10 points, RFE/RL's Ukrainian Service reports.
"We have preliminary information that Ukraine will improve by at least 10 points," he said in a speech in Ivano-Frankivsk today.
At the same time, Poroshenko stressed that he was not satisfied with such a result. He said that after the local elections on October 25, the implementation of reforms has to speed up in Ukraine.
Ukraine has improved its Doing Business rating from the 112th position in 2014 to 96th this year.
