Makarchuk reminded participants that, thanks to legislative changes, business reporting, which had been suspended since the start of the full-scale invasion, will be resumed in Ukraine in July 2025. By mid-2026, the State Statistics Service plans to fill the gap in the statistical series.

In addition, Ukrainian statistics are gradually being integrated into the European statistical system: harmonizing methodology, adapting legislation in accordance with the European Statistics Code of Practice, and expanding data transfer through EDAMIS.

As reported, according to the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), Ukraine's population has declined by 10 million people, or about a quarter, since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion due to the outflow of refugees, falling birth rates, and increased mortality from the war.
