Strengthening the veterans' policy is a management issue, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in a video message on Monday.

"This morning, we discussed with Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal the strengthening of the policy of heroes - the policy of veterans. Steps that will cope with the existing problems in this area and give confidence to our people. The steps of the reset are not only in this direction," he said.

"With all due respect to Madam Minister, this is a matter solely of management. Ukraine needs strength, fresh energy and sufficient leadership in every area," the President said.
