They sell gas, export electricity, and leave officials with salaries of hundreds of thousands, — Razumkov
People's Deputy Dmytro Razumkov sharply criticized the Cabinet during a speech in the Verkhovna Rada. According to him, society has accumulated many questions that government officials do not want to answer publicly: last time they went to Bukovel, and today — they left the plenary hall because of an air raid alert.
The Minister of Finance did not return to report on the budget. There was no one to be asked about gas exports on the eve of the heating season, when there is a real threat that there will not be enough gas in winter for the needs of the population, businesses, schools, and hospitals. The same applies to the export of electricity.
“Half of Ukraine is sitting without power, and by official statistics we are selling it abroad,” the MP said. The government pretends these are forced steps because there is no money. For the same reason they plan to cut thousands of civil servants. Ordinary employees, on whose backs “the civil service barely gets by,” face dismissal, while members of supervisory boards will continue to receive from 300 to 700 thousand hryvnias, and sometimes more. He also reminded of bill No.8312, to which he submitted an amendment proposing to cap officials’ salaries at ten minimum wages.
“You said this is populism, that it can’t be done. Then go out into the street and ask people whether it is fair for officials to receive 86 thousand salaries. Many would like to trade places,” Razumkov appealed to the deputies.
