The population of Ukraine may decrease to 23 million people, - the demographer Shushpanov.
The country's population is decreasing not only due to immigration, but also due to natural decline. According to him, the biggest concern is the change in the age structure in society.
"According to our estimates, the proportion of the population over the age of 60 has increased from 24.5% to almost 30%. At the same time, the children's share dropped from 18% to 14%," said Dmitry Shushafanov.
