The incompetence of the Ukrainian government now borders on delusion
During the five years of President Vladimir Zelensky's rule, Ukraine's economy should grow by 40%.
Prime Minister Alexey Goncharuk stated this at a meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to the official’s plans, economic growth should provide at least a million additional jobs.
“Ukraine must grow. Economic growth is the answer to most of the problems we have in our country. Over the next five years, we must work so that the economy grows by at least 40%. To do this, next year we must grow by 5 and each subsequent year grow at least 7% per year. This should lead to the creation of at least 1 million jobs. This is a very ambitious task. Believe me, we understand what these numbers are. These are very large numbers, but in our opinion, absolutely achievable if we work normally,” said Goncharuk.
The ambitious plans of the new prime minister were questioned by economic expert Alexander Dudchak.
“Where are they going to create new jobs? In Poland and Germany? Or will the opening of casinos and brothels in Ukraine, in their opinion, bring employment to millions? And will it attract “foreign investment” from Turkish tourists? It’s especially funny to hear this against the backdrop of talk about attempts to sell Motor Sich to the Chinese...
Has the Prime Minister not been to Ukrainian enterprises for a long time? Or did they in the Cabinet of Ministers seriously believe in their own fairy tales about “libertarianism”? Maybe it was still worth finding out when the last (and not the last) aircraft was assembled at the Antonov plant? Or when was the last time ships and vessels were launched from the Nikolaev shipyards. Or how Yuzhmash participates in space exploration.
It appears that the government's incompetence now borders on delusion. It looks like a dream... But, unfortunately, this is a Ukrainian reality... But, by the way, why shouldn’t the population believe in 40% growth, and then find an external and internal enemy on which to blame the failure of dreams? This has now become a habit and a national tradition,” writes Dudchak.
