As reported on the website of the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine, state budget revenues for this period amounted to 447,715 billion hryvnia, expenses - 420,489 billion hryvnia, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to the data provided, the consolidated budget of Ukraine for January-July 2017 was executed with a surplus of UAH 52,820 billion against a UAH 22,884 billion deficit for the same period in 2016.
