Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk at a meeting of the National Reforms Council expressed confidence that a single draft tax reform will be drawn up, taking into account the position of the Ukrainian president, and he said that the government is ready for a compromise to have the effective tax reform and the balanced budget.
Earlier to this Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has urged not to increase tax rates as a part of the tax reform and proposed that they are gradually reduced in next three years.
