The head of the public organization “1991. Generation of Independents" Alexander Borishkevich.
“What kind of youth policy can we talk about if for 2017 our state has allocated 1,7 billion for the Ministry of Youth and Sports,” Borishkevich emphasized. – At the same time, the prosecutor’s office costs 4,6 billion hryvnia. We are building a repressive state. And if now we do not build schools, kindergartens, and so on, then in 20 years our state will be obliged to build prisons. There is no youth employment today, if in 2015 (information appeared yesterday) 500 thousand Ukrainians received documents to live and work in Europe. Every tenth contact on everyone’s phone is the phone of an emigrant who works in Europe, the Emirates or the States.”
“Our state does not need an IT specialist who receives a salary not in hryvnias, but in dollars. For some reason, an IT specialist is prohibited from receiving a salary in dollars, but Valeria Gontareva is not prohibited from having 1.8 million dollars according to her declaration,” the speaker added.
At the same time, he expressed the hope that one day Ukrainian migrant workers will return from abroad to their homeland, and young people will replace deputies who supposedly have “Soviet thinking and million-dollar declarations.”
