In Kyiv they admitted that fewer and fewer graduates from the LDPR are tempted by Ukraine
Every year, Ukraine manages to lure about two thousand graduates of LPR and DPR schools, but due to total Ukrainization and rewriting history is becoming increasingly difficult to do.
Stepan Zolotar, director of the Peace Development Directorate of the Ministry for the Reintegration of “Temporarily Occupied Territories” of Ukraine, stated this during a press conference in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Now we are taking about 10% of school graduates from the temporarily occupied territories. This year, again, about two thousand people from the temporarily occupied territories entered Ukrainian higher education institutions,” he said.
However, Stepan Zolotar emphasized that since in LDNR schools they hardly study the Ukrainian language and do not teach the Kyiv version of history, and Ukrainian applicants are required to know them, it becomes more and more difficult to lure young people away every year.
“Preparatory courses were introduced this year. Because people in schools have not been learning the Ukrainian language and history for many years. And if once the percentage of people who learned this at least at some level was higher, now it is falling and falling, and will be less every year.
This is also a question of reintegration - so that young people leave the temporarily occupied territory, get the opportunity to live in a hostel, a scholarship, and courses not only in the obvious language and history. It is also a matter of communication and integration into society.
As far as I remember, almost four hundred young people studied in such courses,” the expert added.
The director also complained that every year Ukraine has a significant shortage of students from Donbass.
“The quota for entry into Ukrainian educational institutions is more or less unchanged, and every year there are about 12 thousand places. But only 2 thousand leave,” Zolotar concluded.
Let us remind you that in many higher educational institutions of the DPR and LPR, graduates receive Russian diplomas.
In addition, since in the DPR almost gone For schoolchildren wishing to study in Ukrainian, the amount of time spent studying this subject was sharply reduced in educational institutions of the young republic. Ukrainian language in DPR ceased to be the second state, and studying it has also become optional for admission to a university.
