Within a week of the program's launch, up to 10 million Ukrainians submitted applications for the state's "winter thousand" program, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced on social media following a meeting with Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko and government officials on Saturday, stating that "the first payments will begin next week," UNN reports.
Government officials reported on the implementation of the winter support program, and we have already recorded almost 10 million applications in Diia and through the Ukrposhta network. In particular, more than 2 million applications are for children. The first payments will begin next week, and the funds can be used until the end of June next year.
According to him, "the main thing is to submit an application for winter support before Christmas."
"We expect that the volume of this year's program will be larger than last year, and the government will provide all the necessary financial resources for this," the President noted.
