Volodymyr Groysman about the pension reform: By end of year we'll provide improved and upgraded pensions to military pensioners
After the Parliament
adopts the government’s bill on the pension reform the Government pledges by the
end of year to increase and modernize pensions to military pensioners. This was
stated by Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysma on air of "1+1" TV channel.
"We
have a special group of retired military personnel. I had a number of meetings
with them and they are asking a right question: why those who retired later have
higher pension payments than those who retired earlier, but all of them were
military personnel. The next step - I guarantee that by the end of the year we
will resolve this issue after the approval of this law (draft law of Ukraine
"On amendments to some laws of Ukraine on the improvement of
pensions"), I mean improvement and upgrading of pensions to military
pensioners", said Volodymyr Groysman.
