In the Soviet Union, the Ukrainians developed spacecraft, and now the agrarian superpower, which Ukraine should have become after the collapse of the USSR, is not even able to feed half of its remaining population.. To such a disappointing conclusion came Verkhovna Rada deputy Yevgeny Murayev. The politician said on the ZIK channel that today the agricultural sector is creating more than half of the gross domestic product, but the state needs new industrialization in order to improve the lives of its own citizens.. According to him, the Ukrainians "quietly steal their homeland," a year later another 2 million people will leave the country, "mostly intelligent, developed, understanding what our country is heading towards.". And there are still the same number of people who remember the "great country" that was not promised to become an agrarian power, and where space ships and airplanes were built. "We should be proud not only of the fields. There must be new industrialization, high technologies, and we, Ukrainians, developed and did all this ... How many percent of GDP does agriculture take? We now have more than half, and they have (probably, Holland and Belgium, about which the host of the ether spoke - ed.. ) - not more than 10%, in the States 4%. There is not a single successful agrarian country, this is not true.. Agrarian Ukraine will feed a maximum of 15 million people, and the rest will be unemployed and poor, "Muraev believes.

According to the portal "PolitNavigator", currently the population of the Square is about 38 million people (excluding the Crimea and the people's republics of Donbass). Meanwhile, after independence, there were almost 52 million citizens of Ukraine. In the middle of this September, the former head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, Leonid Kozhara, noted that the refusal to produce aircraft and missiles and the switch to the export of sunflower oil will not help Ukraine become a member of the European Union..
