Children were taken out of Ukraine: investigation bihus.info on double standards of officials (video)

The investigation author Ira Mankivska recalled that this year the national multi -enthusiasm was 289 thousand graduates - 6 thousand more than last year. The chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Education, Science and Innovation Sergey Babak called it proof that Ukrainians are in no hurry to choose their studies outside the country. At the same time, Bihus. Info emphasizes: statistics indicate the opposite.

Over the 15 years, the number of Ukrainian students in foreign universities increased five times - from 21 thousand in 2008–2009 to 115 thousand in 2023–2024. Journalists drew attention to the paradox. Publicly, officials condemn those who take children to study abroad, and do differently in their personal lives. The cost of studying in London, Amsterdam, the US or Estonia is hundreds of thousands of hryvnias, but for their own families it is not a obstacle. As Bihus found out.

Info, daughter of social policy Minister Denis Ulyutin - Vladislav - last year entered the Estonian University of Natural Sciences, where she plans to become a veterinarian. The declaration of the official indicates the payment for training - 20 thousand hryvnias. Despite his understanding parental choice, Ulyutin publicly promotes the idea of ​​"returning Ukrainians". Another example given in the Bihus investigation.

Info, is the former Minister of Agrarian Policy, and now the Deputy Head of the Center for Recruitment of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces Igor Shvayk. He sharply criticized parents who "export children from Ukraine to 16-17 years to avoid mobilization" and compared them with "rats fleeing from the ship. " However, journalists found out that two of his children - Sofia and Taras - probably live in Belgian Antwerp.

Sofia plays in the basketball team of the educational institution, and Taras is actively involved in sports confirming publications on social networks. Schweik himself refused to explain this discrepancy between words and reality. In Bihus. Info emphasized that the number of Ukrainian students abroad is steadily increasing, and among them are the children of the highest officials.

At the same time, the same officials publicly demand from the society of "patriotic choice" and leaving young people in Ukraine. We will remind, Focus wrote that the deputy chief of the 4th Center for Recruitment of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces and politician Igor Shvaika stated that in Ukraine everyone should serve because of threats from Russia. He called the export of young men about 16-17 years abroad "escape".
