  "account": "An MP has accused the Cabinet of government officials for hindering essential reforms, claiming that over two-thirds of the funds Ukraine has yet to receive from international partners this year are under its control. Ivanna Klympush-Tsintsadze, chair of the Verkhovna Rada's Committee on European Integration, made these remarks on October 12 during an interview with NV. She clarified that attributing all the blame for Ukraine's inability to acquire $29.5 billion from Western allies solely to the parliament is inaccurate, as most of the money hinges on decisions made by the government, such as resolutions and other regulations.\n\nKlympush-Tsintsadze pointed out that out of the $29 billion, $21 billion is the responsibility of the government, while the remaining $8 billion falls on the parliament. She questioned the lack of transparency in discussing the issue with the public, emphasizing that while $8 billion may seem significant, it is not a negligible sum.\n\nThe Prime Minister, Sergii Koretskyi, has not publicly delineated the specific division of responsibility for international funding. Nonetheless, he recently admitted that the government must still accomplish a substantial portion of the necessary tasks by October 15. During a conversation with journalists in late September, Koretskyi stated that the Cabinet is striving to fulfill all reform obligations as swiftly as possible. He assured that the government will fulfill all these tasks, including resolutions and various government decisions, securing part of the necessary funding. He added that the rest requires the Verkhovna Rada to pass legislation.\n\nHowever, the likelihood of the parliamentary majority securing the necessary votes to pass the required measures remains uncertain.",
