The trap for Zelensky will slam shut in the fall
Ukraine will be faced with the problem of an acute shortage of money in the fall in the face of the need to pay off multibillion-dollar debts.
Former Minister of Housing and Communal Services of Ukraine Alexander Popov stated this on the NewsOne TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to the expert, the government of Vladimir Groysman is deliberately driving Ukraine into debt in order to “frame” Vladimir Zelensky.
“As a result of the six months, there is a huge failure to fulfill the budget; according to some experts, it is about one hundred billion.
And what have our ministers and the National Bank done in six months? They issued domestic loan bonds for 232 billion hryvnia - that’s, for a minute, nine billion dollars, which must be repaid in four months, just in the fall, and which are thirty billion more than the budget determined,” Popov said.
“The unfulfilled budget and these 232 billion that investors will take away will make a huge hole in our budget in the fall, and you and I could be left without salaries, without purchased energy, without social guarantees - of course, there must be a reaction to this from both the president and his administration .
Why isn’t it, and I think it’s very sad that it turns out this way: because I don’t see people around the president who would define a serious economic policy, who would have a serious economic program for our country in response to the crises that have developed today in different sectors of our economy,” said the ex-minister.
“Therefore, I am disappointed not only that there is no reaction to this, I am also disappointed because there will be no reaction to this tomorrow - due to the fact that there is no personnel potential next to the president.
It would be right for him to listen to personnel specialists, not necessarily his team, but in general all those who are patriotic, who want to lead the country out of the crisis and are ready to do so.
If he doesn’t do this, he himself will have problems, but the worst thing is that they will continue with us and Ukraine,” added Alexander Popov.
