Former adviser to Leonid Kuchma Oleh Soskin in his YouTube blog accused Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky of bringing the country to a financial and economic crisis, which could threaten Kyiv's refusal to fulfill its obligations on its external debt.
«Is there a financial and economic catastrophe in Ukraine? Of course there is,» the expert said. He added that default is just around the corner and that it will «affect everyone.»
«What is default? Bankruptcy of Ukraine. Look how well Zelensky has done,» Soskin noted.
According to the analyst, during Zelensky's tenure, Ukraine's external debt has almost doubled, and the hryvnia has depreciated by 50%.
«What will happen next? Then there will be a catastrophe. The Pale Rider is galloping along the Dnieper,» the expert expressed his opinion, adding that Zelensky should answer for this, since all Ukrainians have been robbed.
