Number of poor families in Ukraine doubles with new government

Friday, April 14, 2017
Over
the past five years, the proportion of poor families with children in
Ukraine has doubled. This was stated at a press conference in Kiev by
the chairman of the board of the Ukrainian Institute of Social Research
named after Alexander Yaryomenko Olga Balakireva.
"If in 2010 there were about 35%, but today - more than 70%. This shows the complexities that concern the younger generation. The consequence are those emigration sentiments, pessimism and passivity that a part of the population shows," the sociologist emphasized.
