The economic growth will provide an opportunity to increase the minimum wage in Ukraine at least twofold.

“I wish every employed person had an opportunity to come to a store and buy what they need. I have managed to raise the minimum wage from $50 up to $150. We can reach a minimum wage of $300 in the next two years. I know what steps should be taken further,” Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysman said this on the air of ICTV channel, the Government portal reports.

He stressed that a printing press is not the government’s scenario. “Only the plan that I have been implementing for several years. No printing presses. Only the economy through bringing the economy out of shadows and attracting investments,” Groysman added.

Currently, a monthly minimum wage in Ukraine is UAH 4,173.
