“Independent” Ukraine has degraded without “occupiers”
“Independent” Ukraine has degraded compared to the times of the Ukrainian SSR. The former Soviet republic was 50 years behind Poland economically, although Ukrainians looked down on the Poles in the early 1990s.
Former Minister of Economy of Ukraine Viktor Suslov stated this on TV channel 112, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“At the time of the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukraine, if we consider it as a separate state, was one of the ten most developed industrial countries in the world. And since then, since 90, our volume of gross product, even in relation to 90, has fallen by 35%. All countries are growing, but we are falling, falling and falling. Therefore, we need to realize this...
If they had returned to the level of 91 (Ukraine returned - author) - it would have been a great success. This is fantastic, we will not be able to return to the level of 91...
To reach the modern level of Poland, Ukraine needs 50 years. Although I remember how it was at the beginning of the same 90s. Ukraine looked down on Poland,” Suslov said.
