Ukrainian political scientist Alexey Yakubin said this at a press conference in Kiev, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent, answering the question of who will suffer most from the fact that the enterprises of Rinat Akhmetov and other Ukrainian oligarchs, which are located on the territory of the DPR and LPR, are now come under external control republics
“Let’s speak frankly: you and I will suffer because we will see a decrease in contributions to the budget, we will lose hundreds of millions of dollars, and most likely we will see a further increase in tariffs. Roughly speaking, the authorities will shift all responsibility onto our shoulders. Although formally “Samopoch” and those who joined, who started this process, must be responsible to citizens. And from the authorities there is only criticism and inaction,” the political scientist emphasized.
As PolitNavigator reported, the DPR predicts that the blockade of Donbass will return the Ukrainian economy to 1943.
