According to the Prime Minister, the Cabinet will take all measures to support the private sector and preserve jobs.
«We are doing analysis on loans. About 900,000 individuals and legal entities received loans. We sort them into categories and analyze what assistance the government can provide to them and what — commercial banks. We need time,» the Prime Minister said.
