IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva speaks during a conference hosted by the Vatican on economic solidarity, at the Vatican, 5 February 2020.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy spoke with International Monetary Fund Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva on Tuesday (13 September), two sources familiar with the plan said, as Ukraine continues to press the global lender for a full-fledged financing programme.

Ukrainian officials have said they are seeking an IMF program worth as much as $15 billion to $20bn, although such a large amount is seen as unlikely to win IMF approval.

The IMF Executive Board, at an informal session on Monday, discussed a plan that could offer Ukraine $1.4bn in emergency aid through the IMF's Rapid Financing Instrument.
