The Budget Committee of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine supported amendment No. 1279 to increase military personnel’s salaries. This was reported by Member of Parliament Yaroslav Zhelezniak on Telegram, according to UNN.
Details
This will be an instruction to the Government, so it will still be necessary to defend it in the chamber and then pressure the Government to amend its resolution on military personnel’s salaries. But this is a major step that Parliament can take to raise military personnel’s salaries
He added that the next step is to defend amendment No. 1279 in the chamber next week.
Additionally
The Ministry of Defence explained what military personnel’s payments will consist of in 2026 and what additional rewards are provided for carrying out combat missions.
Military personnel receive their financial support by the 20th day of each month for the previous month. If the funds arrive at a military unit late, the payment must be made within three days of their receipt. The amount depends on the service member’s position, rank, length of service, conditions of service, and the tasks they perform.
We remind you
The Minister of Internal Affairs signed orders on additional rewards for National Guard members, police officers, and border guards. The payments take into account the complexity of the tasks and the results of combat operations.
