"30% of the economy and 3.5 million jobs": Shmigal voiced the loss of war with the Russian Federation
Thus, in addition to human suffering and the humanitarian crisis, which provoked Moscow, the growth of the Ukrainian economy has also slowed. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Denis Schmigal told how the Russian invasion of the Russian Federation influenced the development of Ukraine in an interview with the Japanese TV channel. So, according to him, because of the war, Ukraine lost 30% of its economy. "Through Russian aggression against my country, 30% of our economy, almost 20% of our territory.
We have lost 3. 5 million jobs," Shmigal said. He also noted that after leaving the EU, Ukrainians do not want to return to Ukraine because of security problems. The basis for all forecasts is the continuation of economic growth this year. Focus wrote about it in his material: how do we earn? The main economic forecasts for 2024. "The forecasts are sufficient conditional, and the slowdown of development is explained by both logistics and uncertain situation on the front and certain other factors.
On the other hand, there are Ukrainian industries that will develop and support the state. First of all, it is a defense-industrial complex," He told Danilo Hetmantsev in an interview with focus. So far, the forecasts are not too different-in general, experts believe that GDP will increase by about 3-6%. For example, analysts at the Center for Economic Strategies, at the end of 2023, published a forecast for GDP from non -governmental experts, and it said 4% in 2024.
