Ukrainians don After increasing cost of housing and communal services is less than the population of Ukraine pays bills, wrote the head of the Ukrainian analytical center Oleksandr Okhrimenko on his page century.

according to the state statistics service of Ukraine, he said, in October 2014 Ukrainians paid about 73% of accounts. On November 1, 2014 the total debt of the residents for the payment of tariffs for the service of utilities is eleven, UAH 8 billion (about $778 million), of which about 5.5 billion UAH are debts for hot water and 2 billion for gas.

" As you wait for October 2014 payment for the service utilities rapidly decrease, " said Okhrimenko.

" When Ukrainians began to receive bills with new tariffs for heating, the problem of non-payment of tariffs has become more than relevant, " wrote Okhrimenko, noting, because this is only the beginning: the IMF requires an increase in tariffs for the service of utilities for another 60% from 1 January 2015.

The increase of utility tariffs, as well as among them gas prices for residents who had to be subsidized at the expense of the state budget, is one of the key conditions of the international monetary Fund for Ukraine's foreign aid.
