The government deceived the Ukrainians
Contrary to the statements of Ukrainian Prime Minister Vladimir Groysman, who promised not to raise the retirement age for Ukrainians, everything is happening exactly the opposite.

Ruslan Bortnik, director of the Ukrainian Institute of Policy Analysis and Management, said this at a press conference in Kyiv, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“It is obvious that society has already been deceived. The government promised not to raise the retirement age. But as I understand the published theses, for 70 percent of Ukrainians the retirement age will actually increase directly. And the indirect form of raising the retirement age, meaning increasing the length of service, will affect absolutely all Ukrainians. Therefore, at least one promise was not kept. The retirement age is rising, and quite seriously,” the political scientist said.
All this, according to the expert, makes contributions to the pension fund less practical, and it is more profitable to simply put aside dollars, which in the event of a person’s death will remain for his funeral or go to relatives.
