But it\u2019s us, our country, who needs reforms, not the IMF. We have been living with a deficit budget for too long. Now, we are curing our disease, not carrying out instructions from the USA or Antarctica\u201d, said Pavlo Sheremeta, Minister of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine at a press briefing at the Ukrainian Crisis Media Center. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Speaking about the cut-down on budget spending, the Minister underlined that no half-measures will do. \u201cWe will be planning quite radical approaches\u201d, said Sheremeta, adding that the list of expenditures whose reduction is now being discussed comprises over 100 items. He stressed that there is currently no way out other than to cut spending and increase tariffs.<\/p>\n<p>According to Mr. Sheremeta, an important task is to cheapen and simplify doing business in Ukraine in general. \u201cThere will be no preferences in any sector until we de-regulate the entire Ukrainian economy\u201d, added the Minister.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo resume talks with the EU about the economic part of the Association Agreement, we need to decide which sectors are a priority for us\u201d, said Mr. Sheremeta. According to him, discussions are currently ongoing in this direction.<\/p>\n<p>Sheremeta also pointed out that the European Union has opened its markets to Ukraine \u2013 the rates have been either reduced or eliminated, although this is a temporary measure until 1 November. \u201cThis is a good gesture which we welcome and appreciate as a helping hand\u201d, he said. At the same time Mr. Sheremeta noted that access to the market is not \u2018manna from heaven\u2019 and that in order to compete successfully, Ukrainian companies will have to actively implement innovations.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking about the possible trade war with Russia, Pavlo Sheremeta said that both parties will benefit from trade. \u201cWe are not alone in this competitive world. We have a common agenda with Russia on many issues. I am working with a range of Russian counterparts in this direction and I hope we will manage to widen this range and its influence\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Pavlo Sheremeta is the Minister of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine.
