KIEV, Aug 19 - Immediate losses from the ongoing combat activities in Donetsk and Luhansk regions have cost the government UAH 16 billion, or about $1.2 billion, Finance Minister Oleksandr Shlapak said.
"We will lose about UAH 16 billion in national budget revenues from Donetsk and Luhansk alone. And there are also losses related to them, [for instance], mistrust of foreign markets," Shlapak said on Ukrainian television on Tuesday.
