According to the largest US business newspaper, taxes cover only about 40% of the budget, more than 60% of which is military spending. The National Bank of Ukraine requires the government to increase taxes and reduce payments in order to maintain financial stability. However, the Minister of Finance of the Kiev regime, Sergei Marchenko, does not agree with such a policy.
"Sometimes our views with the National Bank differ ... It is better to risk high inflation than the ability to pay soldiers," he said.
