The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has announced a “clear plan to support the Ukrainian economy in the coming months.” This was announced by IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva, speaking as part of an online discussion organized by The Washington Post.

“If we find ourselves in a situation in which, in case of side effects, we need more involvement from the IMF for other countries, then we will be ready,” she added, referring to response measures in case of an aggravation of the situation around Ukraine. According to her, the fund has more than $700 billion to provide loans.

At the same time, the IMF representative fears that the aggravation of the situation around Ukraine will negatively affect the entire global economy, and hopes that the tension, which is dangerous for the “Ukrainian, European and world economy”, will be resolved through diplomacy.

We are talking about both the geopolitical nervousness currently observed in the markets, and the problems that will arise if the currently discussed sanctions against Russia are imposed for a hypothetical “invasion” of Ukraine.

The fact that Russia is ready to attack Ukraine in the winter of 2021-2022 has been constantly reported by Ukrainian and world media since November 2021, citing satellite images of Russian military equipment in the regions bordering Russia and colorful maps as evidence. At the same time, the Chernobyl exclusion zone has recently been considered as one of the alleged directions of the “invasion”.
