“I don’t like either of them. They’re all chasing wealth, but they’ve got enough money already, and now they should just concentrate on the wellbeing of the nation.”
Oleksandr Manovitsky,
company CEO
“Yatsenyuk was somewhat adventurous, Groysman is more thoughtful. But the recent doubling of the minimum wage was not a wise decision in my opinion; it just led to higher inflation and higher taxes for private entrepreneurs. I believe that Groysman’s intentions are not evil, but his words and actions can be a little contradictory.”
Alla Tkachenko,
retiree
“Neither of them appeals to me really. When Groysman took the position he promised not to raise utility bill tariffs, but he didn’t stick to his promises.”
Bohdan Kotovych,
lawyer
“Both Yatsenyuk and Groysman are very clever, which is a nice change from (Viktor) Yanukovych times. Of course, everybody still steals, and the whole system needs to be changed. But I am pro-evolution, not revolution.”
Oleg Humen,
leatherworker and furrier
“I don’t really know how the work of a prime minister affects young people. Looking at their personal qualities, I like Groysman a little better. He is younger and tougher. Yatsenyuk was more politically correct.”
Yulia Tkachuk,
student
“It is the whole government I’m not satisfied with, and the state that the country is in.”
