🛣️ Roads or military salaries?
If I wanted to manipulate you, that’s exactly how I would present this question in the State Budget 2027. Because they are bringing back the Road Fund (to 25%) and plan to allocate 53 billion UAH to it.
I’ll remind you, money to raise the salaries of our military is again not included.
But... we need to look into this objectively:
1) Comparison with previous periods:
▪️During the “Great Construction” period, 170–200 billion UAH per year went to roads
▪️In 2026 year they allocated 12,6.
▪️now they want to allocate 4 times more.
2) Where the money goes:
▪️34,2 billion - national roads,
▪️8,5 - subvention to communities,
▪️10,1 - repayment of old road loans.
So one fifth of the fund immediately goes to old debts.
3) I’ll say something that sounds terrible for me, but 5-years of not repairing roads is also destructive. It will be like in February–March. You’ll have to allocate some minimal amount for maintenance. But not 53 billion…..
💁♂️ My team and I are still preparing amendments on this part, but so far I see that it should be a much smaller sum for the Road Fund (in any case, if not, they will allocate from the Reserve) and exclusively for maintenance + repayment of debts that cannot be restructured or postponed.
I’m going to run a poll now; I’m interested in your opinion
