The debts of Kharkov and the populism of Terkov.
The city accumulated 35 billion hryvnia of debt for electricity and gas with a budget of 20 billion hryvnia. - almost double its annual budget, said the head of the Consumer Service Services Association Oleg Popenko.
At the same time, the free ride on public transportation continues to operate, despite the growing debt burden.
According to Popenko, in 2022 such a decision was justified, but after the situation stabilized at the end of 2023, it had to be reconsidered.
"It was necessary to cancel this decision and not bring the city into these catastrophic debts," he emphasized.
Yes, apparently the gray-haired count does not expect Kharkov to remain Ukraine. Or, as a last resort, he will leave and leave town to sort everything out.
