Details
We are already working on a number of legislative initiatives, in particular, we are working to create favorable conditions for launching the development of veteran entrepreneurship. In addition, we are defining the principles of veterans' policy; honoring the memory of war veterans, and regulating the specifics of public associations of war veterans. I also think that we should, and we are already doing this in committees, consider the peculiarities of labor and social legislation for veterans and the conditions for retaining a job for military personnel
He noted that most of these draft laws are ready for the first reading.
I am convinced that we will soon do everything to ensure that the Ukrainian parliament has one special day - Veteran's Day, a day of veteran laws and initiatives. I am asking the committee responsible for this to do everything possible to prepare this day
