At an exit session of the Government held on Wednesday, May 7, in Kharkiv, the Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk addressed the Defense Minister and the Minister of Internal Affairs with a request to solve the problem of social maintenance of militarymen.  

Arseniy Yatsenyuk stressed he “is not satisfied with the situation with social maintenance” of military personnel. He demanded from the Defense Minister Mykhaylo Koval “to summon the staff immediately, to make each person feel, to make sure everyone is informed what his salary is, how this funding is received”, and to provide them completely with uniforms and nutrition.

Arseniy Yatsenyuk reminded that accompanied by the Defense Minister and Minister of Internal Affairs today he had paid a visit to an anti-terrorist operation (ATO) camp and several checkpoints in the ATO area. He handed over to the National Guards of Ukraine four BTR-4E armoured personnel carriers purchased under a special Government’s program and handed rewards to the military.
