In the draft budget for next year, much attention is paid to the security and defense of the country. I fully support this decision. But there is a big spoonful of tar in the program document.
Funding for education and science decreased by approximately 20%. Taking into account inflation, the cost of education will fall in half.
Funding of the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy also halved.
Compare two lines from the document - financing of political parties and expenses for maintaining all museums, theaters, libraries, and cultural heritage of Ukraine:
Financing of political parties - UAH 336 million (will remain at the same level as last year);
Ministry of Culture and Information Policy - 7,536 million (the budget was halved).
Culture and the information space were not satisfied again. When will we next ask - why the war, where do the collaborators come from, why is the Ukrainian identity not being formed?
