KIEV, Oct. 24 (Xinhua) -- The Ukrainian government on Wednesday published a report outlining the cabinet's key achievements in the first nine months of the year.

According to the report, the strong growth of Ukraine's gross domestic product and exports were among the government's top accomplishments so far this year.

During the period, Ukrainian budget revenues increased by 15.2 percent to 24 billion U.S. dollars, while the nominal salary in the country increased by about 26 percent year-on-year, the report said.

Furthermore, the government's program on road modernization saw an overhaul of more than 1,000 km of state highways.

The report also stressed the upsurge in the Ukrainian defense sector, saying that the country's army has received more than 2,000 units of brand-new and modernized domestically-produced weapons since the beginning of the year.

The Ukrainian government led by Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman took office in April 2016.
