"[Economic - approx. Ed.] the situation is so dramatic that you have to wonder, will have the opportunity for Ukraine to continue its existence as an independent unitary country, " emphasizes Caselli.

according to him, in Kiev there is no ruling class capable of leading the country out of the "tragic situation" in which she found herself." Presidents and governments that succeeded one another since 1991, failed to build the economy of the country, " said the Professor.

in his vision, the only solution for the current Ukrainian leadership was to receive the patronage of Europe and Russia.
