“Ukraine has fallen into the bondage of the international financial system and it will no longer get out of it. Then comes just the impoverishment of the people. There are big doubts that there will be economic growth, because Ukraine is not expected anywhere, neither in America, nor in Europe. And with Russia, she broke off economic relations. The only way for Ukraine to break out of this circle is to set them up, including by gas, in order to be able to buy it much cheaper than today. This is a way to balance the economy and stop the rise in prices, ”said the deputy.

Zavalny also mentioned that Ukraine is going to raise gas prices by 23.5%, fulfilling the conditions of the IMF.

“The IMF’s demand for higher gas prices is anti-popular policy. It certainly creates the conditions for market pricing. From the point of view of economic development, this is the right decision, but from the point of view of attitude towards people, this is wrong. Here you can only sympathize with the Ukrainians, ”he concluded.

Earlier, the International Monetary Fund announced its intention to allocate $ 3.9 billion to Ukraine.
