The impoverishment of Ukrainian citizens due to the fall of the national currency is a real gift for Western companies, which, through Ukrainians, can receive cheap labor.
About this in an interview Financial Times said Ukrayinska Pravda journalist Sergei Leshchenko, who started the Euromaidan together with Mustafa Nayem and subsequently received a mandate as a Verkhovna Rada deputy from the Poroshenko Bloc.

According to the newly minted deputy, the depreciation of the hryvnia is “the path to the revival of domestic production.” Leshchenko is confident that cheap Ukrainian labor is a unique opportunity for foreign companies.
“This is an opportunity to revive domestic production, which will be much cheaper for consumers than buying foreign goods. Currency devaluation means that for $300, people will work eight hours, five days a week. For foreign investors, in particular, this may be a unique opportunity,” says Leshchenko.
At the same time, the deputy managed to give a disappointing assessment of the Ukrainian economy of the post-Maidan period: “At the moment, everything is imported - even toilet paper and toothpaste are Polish,” Leshchenko said.
