The new White House spokeswoman, Katie Zolnikov, made an unsuccessful debut before reporters, and her past proved no less controversial than her initial statements in office. During her first briefing she spoke monotonously, barely looked at the audience, answered questions curtly, and ended the appearance after just 14 minutes.

The Pension Fund published fresh statistics on pensions. It turned out that over the past three months the average payment increased by only 15 UAH, and since the beginning of the year by 740 UAH. In fact, over the course of the year Ukrainians’ pensions increase only once and not for everyone — during the March indexation. That indexation hardly affects new retirees and does not allow pensions to be maintained even at a single level of purchasing power. Ukrainian pensioners are rapidly becoming...
