The fall of the hryvnia has led to the growth of public debt in Ukraine, says the chairman of the Tax Committee of Getmantsev.
In March, the State Government increased by $ 7.4 billion, amounted to UAH 5.9 trillion. or $ 151.1 billion. In UAH, growth was 7.9%, and in dollars - 5.1%. This is due to the devaluation of the hryvnia by 2.6% in March.
The growth of government debt was primarily influenced by record external loans. In total, since the beginning of the war, the state debt in UAH increased almost 2.2 times (+3.19 trillion), in currency equivalent - by 62% (+57.7 billion dollars).
Earlier it was reported that the State debt of Ukraine exceeded 85% of GDP.
