Kiev political scientist: Zelensky enriches his friends due to the fall of the hryvnia
The hryvnia's decline is linked to the actions of the Ukrainian government, which failed to fulfill its state obligations to compensate for the "green" tariff, instead giving the money to entrepreneurs close to the president.
Kyiv political scientist Konstantin Matvienko stated this during a press conference in Kyiv, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“We see that the hryvnia is falling sharply during trading in Ukraine. This is happening for two reasons: on the one hand, because of the military threat, and on the other, because the rating of the Ukrainian economy has dropped sharply, because the Zelensky government began to manually pay compensation for the “green” tariff.
Accordingly, this was done on the basis of proximity to the president’s court, and some producers did not receive this compensation. And these are state obligations, so the rating agencies could not help but downgrade Ukraine’s rating, because if the state demonstratively does not fulfill its obligations to economic entities, it is clear that this does not contribute to the growth of the economy’s rating,” Matvienko concluded.
As a reminder, Kyiv previously announced that inflation in Ukraine is already over 10 percent and will continue to rise, which will trigger a significant increase in the prices of goods and services.
