Efforts from Ukraine's government to reach an agreement with its creditors aiming at restructuring $23 billion of its external public debt were reported to have produced no results by August 2015. The finance ministry sent a fresh offer to a creditor group on 4 August 2015 and scheduled a 'decisive' meeting for two days later, but reports suggested that creditors saw the debt proposal as unacceptable and offered a meeting later on. An international bailout programme to shore up its finances depends on Ukraine making $15 billion in savings via debt restructuring. The agreement should be reacher before it is due to make principal and interest payments of more than $500 million on a Eurobond maturing on 23 September 2015. |
