I am forced to state that such violations of the rights of Ukraine's defenders are not uncommon. And this is unacceptable
Details
The Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights claims to have received an appeal from a serviceman who was on medical treatment and leave for health reasons from December 30, 2022, to March 4, 2023. According to the current resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers, he was supposed to be paid an additional remuneration of UAH 100,000, but this did not happen.
After Lubinets' intervention and submission of medical documents to the command, the outstanding funds were credited to the soldier's card, restoring his right to proper financial support.
The protection of the rights of Ukraine's defenders, who daily fight for the right to exist and live in Ukraine, should be a priority for all state bodies and their officials
