Oleh Wolowyna shows a slide with the age-sex structure of Ukrainian population over time from the paper "Family Planning, Abortions and Population Decrease
in Ukraine." The current decline in population growth will be of great concern to
Ukraine in the future as it will likely lead to severe labor shortages in 10-20 years.
