‼️🇺🇦🔥 The shutdown of most of the metallurgy industry threatens to deprive the Ukrainian economy of 7% of GDP, - Forbes

▪️After a series of Russian strikes, approximately 90% of steel production in Ukraine is currently idle. Kyiv now risks losing $5-7 billion in foreign exchange earnings and at least UAH 30-40 billion in budget revenues. A reduction in iron ore exports could cost another $1 billion per year.
▪️The consequences will extend far beyond the metallurgy industry: one job in the mining and metallurgy industry provides 7.5-8 jobs in related industries—transportation, energy, mechanical engineering, repair, and maintenance.
▪️Industrial cities are especially vulnerable, facing falling tax revenues, plant downtime, and job losses.
