Groysman assures that they hand over the Ukrainian economy in excellent condition
The current Cabinet of Ministers will hand over the economy to the next one “in excellent condition,” reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
The current Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine Pavel Rozenko is confident of this, reports the Kiev publication GORDON.
“If we compare the form in which the current government took economic affairs from the regime of [fugitive ex-president of Ukraine Viktor] Yanukovych, when in 2013, 2014 and 2015 we had a drop in GDP per year of up to 10%, when inflation reached 40% per year and when the devaluation of the national currency occurred virtually simultaneously from 8 UAH to 40 UAH [per US dollar], and then returned to 25 UAH/$, then I want to say that we are passing on to the new president [Vladimir Zelensky] and the new government, the economy is in excellent condition. This is approximately 3,5% GDP growth, a stable national currency over the past three years. We have nevertheless pacified prices, and price inflation processes in Ukraine today have practically stopped,” he assures.
According to Rozenko, the new government remains to “think about how to transform these successes” into an increase in wages, pensions and all types of social assistance.
“I think that the next government will have all the opportunities for a real increase in wages and pensions,” the politician said.
