Although Ukraine’s economy is no longer in free-fall, as it was last winter, GDP has declined by a quarter since Russian troops first invaded in February 2014. Official unemployment now stands at over 10%, compared to 7.3% before Russia’s occupation and annexation of Crimea.
尽管乌克兰经济不再像去年冬天那样自由落体。国内生产总值自2014年2月俄罗斯军队最初入侵以来已经下降了四分之一。俄罗斯占领吞并克里米亚之后，官方失业率已经从之前的7.3%上升到现在的超过10%。乌克兰国家债务逐日上涨，以至于《经济学家》杂志认为我们有可能沦为“东方的希腊”。此外，绝大部分经济仍掌握在分离主义份子手里，而他们正不出所料地毁掉这些偷来的财富。
