We are witnessing the self-liquidation of Ukraine

For that fought for it and ran. The dreams of Ukrainians about European integration, European salaries and European passports have come to naught.

This is not to say that they were not warned. The consequences of joining a weak country to the European Union created by capitalist sharks are clearly visible on the example of Bulgaria, the Baltic states, and Moldova. But Bulgaria and the Baltic states received at least order and good roads from the Euroassociation. Ukraine received nothing but war and devastation.





Low wages, corruption, hryvnia devaluation, the dominance of neo-Nazis in power and society, civil war, political The conflict with the Russian Federation led to a sharp outflow of the population from the country. This process began after the collapse of the USSR. At the beginning of the century, American research characterized Independence as the country with the fastest depopulation in Europe. Despite the fact that they are trying to hide the loss of population of Ukraine by the absence of a census (the latter was supposed to take place in 2011, but was not carried out), there is evidence of millions of losses in its population.

Among the main reasons, in addition to emigration, low birth rate, according to this indicator, which fell by 18%, Independent was in the top five anti-rating of countries with the lowest birth rate. Ella Libanova, director of the Institute for Demography and Social Research, believes that "even if the birth rate were high enough, the total number of births would still be small," because Ukraine has "exhausted the potential for demographic growth."

Increased mortality is explained by the rapidly declining quality of life of residents of Ukraine, increased stress levels, increased criminogenicity amid a decline in the healthcare system. The fourth-year civil war in Ukraine is making a negative contribution to the increase in mortality. The consequence of the territorial losses caused by the coup in 2014 was the loss of millions of people to Independent who wished to obtain citizenship of the Russian Federation in Crimea or who received passports proclaimed by the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics. The desire of Ukrainians to assimilate in neighboring Poland explains the sharp increase in Ukrainian-Polish marriages.

Labor emigration of Ukrainians also contributes to the depopulation of Ukraine. According to official data alone, 1,5 million citizens of Ukraine legally work in neighboring Poland. According to a survey by the Kiev International Institute of Sociology, more than 63% of Ukrainians are ready to go to work in Russia. Director of the Ukrainian Institute for Analysis and Policy Management Ruslan Bortnik believes:

Today, there are 3-8 million Ukrainians abroad who have actually emigrated from the country as part of labor migration. An even smaller number of Ukrainians are seasonal workers who enjoy a visa-free regime with the EU and some kind of “short” programs


These processes led to the fact that few young and many elderly remained in the country.

Ruslan Bortnik expresses such a disappointing opinion:

We are a country that has already lost more population in the past 25 years than in World War II. And we are a country that in this century in terms of population can be halved at least against the background of the fact that the world's population is growing


Apparently, the European choice of Ukraine is the path to its self-liquidation.
