Ukraine crisis distracts from its economic reforms -IMF's Lagarde

In an interview on MSNBC, the International Monetary Fund's managing director said financial support for Kiev depends on how stable the situation is in eastern Ukraine, where pro-Russia separatists have been battling the government.
