Why Ukraine is so poor ? The average monthly salary in 2016 is...145€. This country have the most fertile soils in the world, they are white, they should be able to figure out how to be healthy with such gift but no instead they are miserable like african, even some african country are healthier. This is a mystery to me. Any ukrainian can explain ?
don't be fooled, ukrainians can't cater for themselves
Noah Johnson
It's basically 90s Russia set on a permanent loop.
Ethan Perry
They are Russians without oil
Jonathan Young
rom my experiences livingin Ukraine as a kid most people get by living somewhat rurally We raised our own chickens to eat, grew plants for food, all that good stuff. So even though my parents barely made money we still had food on the table when we needed it.
Leo Gray
Ukraine has all of the worst aspects of post-Soviet states in one country.
Ryan Scott
Corruption destroys every attempt to start a business. As long as they are corrupt the country can never achieve anything.
Isaac Allen
t. someone who knows nothing about 90s and russia this is true
Lucas Ortiz
They have a war going on right now
Dylan Ortiz
but like i said they have the most fertile land in the world, can't they do agriculture and sell the surplus ?
sound like another century lifestyle
every country is corrupt at some degree, even first world, but we manage to live correctly and make something valuable. Ukraine on the other hand is like the congo of europe, they have great natural ressource but they do nothing interesting with it.
Brody Reyes
Name one majority orthodox country that isn't some kind of shit.
You can't!
Chase James
At least they're trying to change things unlike Russia wich will stay a shithole forever.
The only good catholic country is Austria to be fucking honest.
Nathan Turner
Listen my friend. We under occupation. All money goes to defend Europe from Russian menace Putin is main problem of Ukraine We working on it, but we need more money pls But Putin blocking my... eemm.. our transfers. You know fuck you russian puppet You are provoker
Gavin Rodriguez
>ukraine
no such country
Alexander Barnes
tha't true
Ok there is a civil war but still, nothing justify this level of poverty, at least for a white country with ressource like yours.
Colton Cox
>every country is corrupt at some degree, even first world, but we manage to live correctly and make something valuable. No, piss off with your cultural relativism.
Leo Adams
Poland should annex galicja 2bh
Caleb Lewis
In two provinces in the far east. It's more like a skirmish. Only 300 have died this year.
David Sanders

Also, Russia is 5 times better than Ukraine.
John Moore
>cultural relativism. No that's not relativism, it's that's fucking true, i bought a diplome years ago, i know people who bought their driver license (not possible anymore) and i can count lots of thing like this. It's everywhere.
Jacob Allen
>Ukraine wasn't poor before 2014
Joshua Wilson
You know why Gazprom, Yandex and all kinds of other Russian businesses settle in the Netherlands?
Because we have a functional legal system that protects their property against third party influences. Investors refuse to invest in Russia if they dont fall under our jurisdiction.
Brody Myers
>they are white how is that relevant you stupid cuck?
Grayson Phillips
Corruption and bad istitutions, thex have people and technology for moon landing yet they are africa tier
Really makes you think
Brody Morris
They're like russians only in a smaller country. Ukrainians is what Russians would've become without all the natural resources.
Lucas Brown
>they're trying to change things >EU gib minis, plox! If they are trying, they should try harder
Grayson King
that's why i said every country is corrupt at some degree, of course west is more raffinate than the east but still there is corruption here too, you can't deny it. Anyway my question was about ukraine
Logan Anderson

Blake Roberts
The Ukraine is rightful Russian clay and the Ukranian language is nothing more than a retarded dialect of Russian.
Owen Collins
Only 70% similarity. Cannot be considered a dialect.
Samuel Brown
Ukraine doesnt have a poverty problem. Every country has a poverty problem. So I dont understand your issue.
Aiden Bailey
The situation in Russia in the 1990s was much worse than in Ukraine now. Even in the terms of income, most of people here back then had salary of less than $50/month getting it with a delay of several months.
Lincoln Cox
50$ in 90's was pretty much what 150$ is now.
Aaron Smith
> sarcasm
Levi Mitchell
Corruption. Soviet Union. Occupation and war. Most of ukrainian citizens are stupid cunts and destroying Ukraine from inside by themselves. Most of ukrainian politics are stupid cunts too. And many other reasons.
Ethan Price
Even if it was, the 90s were much much worse than what's happening in Ukraine now, excluding the easternmost part.
Eli Williams
I would start my own farm.
Aaron King
Land is expensive. Food is cheap. So you won't get profits if you don't have big rnough starting capital. And when you start getting profit your farm will be taken from you by local bandits covered by corrupted officials that need money to pay for study of their kids in Netherlands.
Jason Morales
The whole planet is poor. It's a consequence of our economic system based on slavery. We must end slavery and start working together and not against each other.
Jackson Hill
Hey Tito
Evan Watson
I can't see any difference though. Extreme pocerty. Rise of criminals. Bunch of oligarkhs rulling the country. Extreme pro western and american popular views. War in one bordering region. Decay and destruction of industry, degradation of science and education bla bla bla bla. Yeah. Seems like 90's Russia.
James Gomez
:(
Ayden Price
In russia or ukraine?
Dominic Nguyen
Ukraine is an invented nation brought into existence by the commies just as Macedonia is. In the first case, they are Russians, in the second they are Bulgarians.
Any questions?
Cooper Cooper
What! You have the blood of mighty alexander in you veins
Christopher Lopez
My old man told me that Ukrainians were the one of the most hated nationalities in the Red Army. They got conscripted and had only one idea, to advance in rank by whatever means necessary. Lacking any basic merits to do so, they instead licked superior's asses and shat on those below them. Betrayals of their comrades were common, whistleblowing to the superiors at the first sign of sidestepping the regulations.
When they got a rank up, they were insufferable cunts. The sort of sergeants and whatnot that would get shot by their own men at the first minutes of a battle, if they ever would bother leading from the front.
Jace Thompson
Yes, only two. What's the real name of Russia, and how it's established?
Christopher Reed
You..keep silent.
Nathaniel Cruz
lel my father told something along those lines as well >where a ukrainian passed, there was nothing left for the jew
It's funny how old people base their views of current situation on some irrelevant shit that happened fifty years ago.
Connor Foster
>>where a ukrainian passed, there was nothing left for the jew Oh yeah, he said that as well. Though I'm not sure how that works since they're poor as rats.
Elijah Nelson
Enjoying Daugavpils Ivan?
Evan Roberts
Both. In Russia chances of being lucky are just higher in some regions.
Carson Baker
Is corruption really that bad?
I wanted to buy a house and some piece of land outside kiev at some point next year.
Colton White
Everything that could had gone wrong went wrong in the ukraine.
Anthony Moore
Yes it is bad. There are stories of ethnic russians returning from central asian -stans in big groups after they became muslim shitholes. They were buying land, creating farms, timber productions, building comfy villages for themselves and in few years some tough guys appeared with some papers saying that they own that timber production and all that land signed by local official.
Hunter Scott
It may require some bribes if you want to buy it by yourself. I think much easier would be to buy it in "dachnyj posiolok" or something like that
Justin Torres

Robert Kelly
Had a revolution and now having a something like war.
Xavier Hall
During the Cold War period Ukraine was much better off economically than Poland and due to being a single country with Russia they had access to their "unlimited" resources as well.
This also continued in the brief moment after the dissolution, whereas Poland from 89-92 was starving shithole in deep economical shock after Balcerowicz's reforms.
But the growth started in 1992 and since we successfuly managed to drop our economical/military relations with Russia (the only SU country that ever mattered) and keep them to bare minimum we keep on chugging.
Ukraine had a MUCH better start. They wanted to transform their economy gradually, but the dissolution left only the worst scum in power and noone was competent enough to do it. Since all people in power were former soviet elite (no different than Poland bear in mind) that profited off corruption, they just continued to profit from it, completely disregarding the rest of the population (which previously was taken care of by the central comittee in moscow)
tl;dr Ukraine was left without their big buddy Russia which was doing all the hard work for them for the last 70 years
Noah Perry
Is there data for 2013, 2014 and 2016?
