Ukraine PM nominee says government to talk with IMF over new programme

Oleksiy Honcharuk, the man nominated to become Ukraine's next prime minister, said on Thursday his government would start talks with the International Monetary Fund over a new program in several weeks time.

The IMF helped the economy recover from a sharp recession and currency crash following the outbreak of the conflict in eastern Ukraine. A new IMF deal could replace an existing $3.9 billion standby aid agreement.
