Those individuals may be disappointed who will receive this winter support through Ukrposhta. Because they can only be spent on those goods that Ukrposhta sells. And this is toilet paper, buckwheat, magazines. I don't know what they sell there, different Ukrposhta stores have a different assortment. Or to pay for utilities. For pensioners, this is a good support and indeed many people ask about how to register and get this money
In addition, she spoke about the benefits of the program for business, since it will be possible to spend 1000 hryvnias only from representatives of national businesses and it cannot be a manufacturer working on a simplified tax system. Thus, a person will spend money from the allowance on goods, the Ukrainian manufacturer will pay taxes on them, and they will thus go to the army.
