      The budget of Ukraine ~ $ 40 billion. $ (Is it being implemented?) I.e. every year they are going to spend ~ 8% of the budget only on military reform! To reduce the army to 70 thousand.?

        Normally, it turns out that the Belgorod region has a budget of as much as 20% more than that of the whole independent one, but I don’t say anything about Maskvabad and Peter. Peter has 4 times more than the whole of Krajina.

          it seems that 16,375 billion $ for five years is not a bad amount for the Ukrainian army. and if so it will be - I am only happy for the army. but two points are alarming:

          The reform developed by the Ministry of Defense involves a reduction in the size of the army to 70 thousand people

            Generally not very much. 16,4bn / 5 / 70000 / 12 = $ 3900 per month per soldier.
            Everything can be differentiated with a gradual decline in numbers over the years, then the amount per soldier will be even less. and now try to arm and equip the equipment of this same mythical average soldier and keep him a decent monetary allowance, provide housing, etc.
            After all, the main problem will be the cost of small-scale production / purchase of modern military equipment, when the unit cost will be astronomical.

          You are too susceptible to the Internet meme culture, but you have problems with mathematics. The budget of St. Petersburg is $ 12,8 billion, the budget of Ukraine is slightly more than $ 55 billion. It turns out almost as you wrote, only in the opposite direction. The budget is independent. It is 4,2 of the budget of St. Petersburg.

          Well, according to Ukraine itself, the indicators are as follows
          Budget revenues increase compared with the plans for the current year by 6,4%, up to 394,6 billion UAH. Costs will increase by 6,3%, to 434,6 billion UAH, which is more than this year by 25,6 billion UAH. The budget deficit is laid at 1,65% of GDP, which is UAH 27,8 billion

          http://mybank.ua/articles/articleDetail.do?objectId=13499

          It turns out that something is at the level of 55 billion, but not at all 181 billion. Where did such indicators come from? Perhaps you confuse GDP and the budget? So for a simple budget, these are taxes on GDP, which cannot be more than 100%.

        Well, your calculations are not entirely correct. The budget for this year in the expenditure part is 434,6 billion UAH, which corresponds to 55,5 billion dollars. Accordingly, about 6% will be sent to military reform. Which is also not small, but it says that Ukraine still began to feel that they want to cut it ...

      The article is written. Realization of excess property. It's time to go to the Crimea to relax, but maybe some land to buy. Interestingly, the auction will be open ??

      As for the reform itself, the sum is ridiculous. Russia now spends about $ 2020 billion a year on the "rearmament 83" program alone, while Ukraine will spend $ 3,34 billion. and this is taking into account the fact that the Russian army was at least somehow rearmed before. tasks of course are different and the number is also different. but why does Ukraine need an army of 70 soldiers? What can such an army do? Romania has an army 000 more. So in Uraine the population is more than twice and it is not covered by any military blocs.
      In general, the picture of the situation is understandable, but we must give tribute to the military leadership, they adequately assess their capabilities and try to create at least something controlled and combat-ready.

      On Wednesday, at a meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, the state program for the reform of the country's armed forces was approved, Defense Minister Pavel Lebedev said.

      The Cabinet of Ministers has only approved the program, and it will be put into effect by Presidential Decree. So this is how the Minister wants it or the journalist got it wrong, but the program is only in the draft so far!

But again, Ukrainians are rogue living from one tranche of the IMF to another. Where they will find 16 billion. This I do not even take into account the fact that some part of the money is stolen. And the other part will be spent on the purchase of equipment at likely high prices. Plus, they still do not need to forget about the extremely worn-out infrastructure with which something must also be done. And this little thing just doesn’t be enough for anything.

    About 131 billion hryvnias or 16,375 billion dollars are supposed to be spent on the implementation of the five-year program, Ukrainian Defense Minister Pavel Lebedev said

    And in hryvnia it sounds cooler. Nabos for every bow to the Blue West will receive a mulliard.
    The reform developed by the Ministry of Defense involves a reduction in the size of the army to 70 thousand people.

    With such a large army, the mustache will be packaged in oil. But if gay men are not allowed to parade in Kiev, they will get a cookie from Geyvropa.

    There are no imperial ambitions in Ukraine, it is not going to attack anyone. And there are no territorial claims as such. I do not support the government in this regard, as I was brought up under the Union, where the Army was honorable in all respects. But what to do if those in power are those who do not think about the army? They would have saved the military-industrial complex. But how many ill-wishers I see in Ukraine! I read the comments, I am amazed! Especially "Alexey Prikazchikov". You probably have something personal about Ukraine ... But you don't need to splash saliva.

          “At the last meeting, the Hungarian government offered support to those initiatives that came from the legitimate political organizations of the Transcarpathian Hungarians. This is the initiative of one of the two Hungarian parties in Transcarpathia. We just secured our support for these initiatives, and we are not talking about any separatism, "said Baer."

Scout sniper is always in demand. So, during this time of service, he had to buy uniforms, shoes at his own expense, pay for an apartment, food, and many more. etc. As a result, it remains only to buy a rifle with cartridges for their own ... Salary of 1350 grivnas., And even then with delays. Repair of equipment and barracks - also at your own expense, everything! And why such an army in general, why does Ukraine need ???
    This is not an army, but a definition. There is no one to defend against, and even more so to attack! And there’s no sense in containing it either!
    Let them already pull away everything that remains of her, and that’s where it will all end!
    The rest is balabolstvo! Where does that money come from? Yes, even SUCH ??? If there is nothing to pay pensions even, and they will reconstruct the army, rams.

    As for the reform, it is long overdue. And in fact, it has been carried out for 2 years already, in terms of rearmament, repair and modernization. Of the 184 thousand troops today, 70 thousand will not be combat-ready. There are a lot of servants and so forth. Therefore, the reduction of the "train" will benefit the army.
