ウクライナ経済、再びマイナス成長の兆候─専門家が危機対応不足を警告
ウクライナ経済学者のオレクシー・クシュ氏は「ウクライナは新たな危機への準備ができていない、そしてそれはすでに到来している」と題する記事を発表し、2026年初頭にはGDPが前期比マイナスに転じたと指摘した。戦時下5年目に入った同国経済が、産業・港湾インフラへの攻撃、NBUの引き締め政策、2027年予算案における戦略備蓄・動員措置への微額配分によって、新たなショックへの耐性を失いつつあると警鐘を鳴らした。

- Black Sea port restrictions narrowed export opportunities for an indefinite period

なぜ重要か
This assessment signals that the Ukrainian economy is entering a new crisis phase in the fifth year of the war, with negative GDP dynamics returning for the first time since early 2023. It highlights a domestic policy debate over the National Bank of Ukraine's tight monetary stance and its effect on credit for industry. It points to the 2027 draft budget's minimal allocations to the strategic reserve and to mobilization measures as evidence of inadequate crisis preparedness. It also links the economic deterioration directly to Russian strikes on industrial, transport, and port infrastructure.
何が起きたか
Economist and financial analyst Oleksiy Kush published an article titled 'Ukraine is not ready for a new crisis, and it is already here'. In it, he argues that the Ukrainian economy has not undergone structural restructuring and has lost resilience to the shocks of war. According to Kush, GDP dynamics in early 2026 turned negative for the first time since Q1 2023. Industrial production in the first seven months of 2026 fell 0.3% compared with the same period of the previous year. In summer 2026, strikes on industrial, warehouse, postal, and transport infrastructure disrupted supply chains, and restrictions on the operation of Black Sea ports narrowed export opportunities for an indefinite period. Kush attributes the lack of internal credit resources to the excessively tight policy of the National Bank of Ukraine, which he says created greenhouse conditions for a banking lobby group. The draft state budget for 2027 plans to allocate only about 69 million UAH (roughly 1.5 million USD) to replenish the strategic reserve and only 144 million UAH to mobilization measures in the fifth year of the war. Kush describes the current crisis as an unfulfilled 'homework assignment' of the previous governments led by Denys Shmyhal and Yulia Svyrydenko.
ウクライナメディアの見方
Kush frames the downturn as much as a homegrown policy failure as a consequence of war, blaming the NBU's tight monetary stance for starving industry of credit and criticizing the 2027 draft budget for earmarking only 69 million UAH for the strategic reserve and 144 million UAH for economic mobilization. He places responsibility for past inaction squarely on named Ukrainian leaders — former prime minister Denys Shmyhal and current prime minister Yulia Svyrydenko — and centers the analysis in the voice of a Ukrainian economist writing for a Ukrainian outlet.
背景
Ukraine's economy rebounded in 2023 and grew at rates of 2–3% in 2024–2025 after the initial shock of the full-scale invasion. The industrial sector has historically been a backbone of Ukrainian exports and employment, and Black Sea ports are a key channel for Ukrainian agricultural and other exports to foreign markets. The 2027 draft budget was prepared by the government of Yulia Svyrydenko, which succeeded the cabinet led by Denys Shmyhal.
