Process of employment of veterans must be intensified – Budanov
Head of the President's Office of Ukraine Kyrylo Budanov reported on a meeting with the participation of representatives of the Ministry of Veterans of Ukraine, heads of regional and Kyiv city military administrations, at which they discussed the issue of state support for veterans.
"Adaptation of veterans, their comfortable return to civilian life after military service is another block of urgent issues. We agreed that the process of employment of veterans must be intensified. Many worthy and experienced people who fought for Ukraine could help in the development of their communities in positions in local government bodies," Budanov said in Telegram on Wednesday following the meeting.
The meeting discussed the issues of providing veterans and families of fallen soldiers with housing in Kyiv and the regions, the range of services financed and provided by the state to veterans of the War for Independence of Ukraine, and informing family members of fallen heroes about the possibility of burials at the National Military Memorial Cemetery.
"I emphasized the need to increase expenditures on veteran policy in local budgets," Budanov said.
