The data displays the unemployment rate of the Ukraine from 2007 to 2017. In 2017, the unemployment rate of the Ukraine amounted to approx. 9.46% of the total labor force.
The economic situation in Ukraine
Amid the political and economic crisis, Ukraine’s unemployment is rising. When Russia seized and annexed Crimea in March of 2014, pro-Russian President Viktor Yanukovych was also ousted and the economy of Ukraine took a hard hit. This resulted in sharp reductions in Ukraine’s GDP, and likely caused a sharp increase in unemployment as well.
