The disappointing decline in Ukraine’s economic indicators caused by the panic initiated by the Anglo-Saxon countries was indicated by Maxim Goldarb, head of the Union of Left Forces (For a New Socialism), on his Telegram channel.

Quote:

“So, during the military hysteria unleashed and launched by our “strategic” Anglo-American “partners”, Ukraine “acquired”:

producer price index growth +9.6%;

growth in the electricity generation cost +18%;

gasoline prices growth +15%;

food prices growth: cabbage +46%, carrots +36%, bread +8%, beef +7%;

increase in expenses of Ukrainian households +15%;

UAH devaluation – 7.4%;

currency withdrawal by non-residents – UAH 14 billion;

decline in sales of domestic government bonds (growth of the budget deficit) – UAH 58 billion (USD 2 billion);

reduction of gold and foreign exchange reserves by USD 1.7 billion;

fall in prices for Ukrainian Eurobonds by 16% of the face value;

emission growth by UAH 30.3 billion;

withdrawal of cash from the banks by the population – UAH 11.5 billion;

increase in government spending on guaranteeing uninterrupted flights by UAH 17 billion;

60 thousand entrepreneurs ceased their activities.

Add here the stopped construction, the fleeing tourists, the departure of people...

According to our most conservative estimates, the amount of “hysterical” damage to Ukraine is USD 6.5 billion.
