Rada deputy is horrified by the amount Ukraine needs to borrow monthly
Ukraine is forced to increase its national debt by five billion dollars every month.
Verkhovna Rada deputy Pavel Bakunets stated this to the Rada TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The country is at war. We canceled a huge number of taxes in the first month. Therefore, there is no budget revenue. We borrow all the time. We need to borrow more than five billion dollars every month. This is a crazy amount. Therefore, we must increase our national debt, and each time we must allocate more and more money for defense,” the politician complained.
“Also, funds for payments to internally displaced persons - every month 3 thousand hryvnia per child, 2 thousand per adult, in fact, this fund is not enough. We also [need] to increase the pension fund in order to pay our pensioners,” said Bakunets.
