The Government has approved the procedure for using the funds earmarked in the state budget for the establishment of the National Military Memorial Cemetery. This was announced by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.

“It is about UAH 515 million that we are allocating for the construction and operation this year. The National Military Memorial Cemetery will be a central place where everyone can pay tribute to the fallen heroes of our Motherland. It will be a special place where sorrow, pride, pain, respect, boundless gratitude and eternal memory meet,” Denys Shmyhal said.

The Prime Minister underlined that the Government had set this as one of the main tasks for the Ministry for Veterans Affairs this year.
