Ukrainians do not understand either their prospects in Ukraine or the prospects of the country, and therefore even those who previously worked here and did not aspire to leave began to leave here.

Evgeniy Oleynikov, an expert at the Economic Discussion Club, stated this at a press conference in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“A very large number of citizens simply do not understand their prospects, and most importantly, the prospects of their children in this country. And he also doesn’t understand the prospects of the country itself. That is, today we do not even have a clear answer. After four years of persistent reforms of everything that our reformers could reach, no one can say, in the end, what kind of Ukraine we generally want to see, what kind of Ukraine we are building. Apart from the general phrase “we take the European Union as a model.” The EU is 28 states, there are different ones. We don’t know what exactly from the EU we took as a model,” the expert said.
According to him, the main impetus for economic emigration is uncertainty, and more qualified personnel have now been added to the ordinary migrant workers who have always existed.
“According to the information that I have today, those who went to work in Russia, and mostly more qualified people went, I must say, they are generally satisfied with their jobs and are in no hurry to exchange them for Polish plantations. They are not interested. But a number of those who previously worked in Ukraine and did not aspire to go anywhere appeared, appreciating the possibility of some kind of perspective here. Now, for various reasons, they have lost this job. These are such powerful industrial hubs as Zaporozhye and Dnieper. These people did go to other countries, and mainly to the EU. They were psychologically looking for stability, prospects in their lives, and now they see it there,” Oleinikov emphasized.
