For two years of the "European course" Ukraine has lost five million jobs and, over the past year, managed  to reduce exports to the EU by more than 30%.

It was stated by an ex-MP and the leader of the Union of Left Forces Vasily Volga.

'The thoughtless implementation of European initiatives in Ukraine has led to the fact that, only in January this year, the amount of our exports to Europe has fallen by 31%, compared to January of last year. This is an external course, due to which we have lost our traditional markets, that has led to the fact that the country has experienced a crazy deindustrialisation. For two years we have got five million unemployed,' said Volga.

According to him, Ukraine will be able to abandon the IMF loans and restore the economics only in the event of a return to the old markets and recovery of the industry.

'A change in the foreign policy course, the return of the traditional markets of Ukraine, the launch of our factories and enterprises, the people's return to their workplaces will lead to the fact that we will get an alternative source of foreign currency. That is, currency through exports. I mean the CIS, the Eurasian Basin, China,' concluded Volga.
