The Verkhovna Rada voted for the creation of the Temporary Investigative Commission on the use of funds from the state budget, aimed at the construction of fortifications and purchase of unmanned aerial vehicles for the Armed Forces.
277 members of parliament supported the creation of the commission.
The former president of Ukraine and leader of the ‘European Solidarity’ party Petro Poroshenko noted that the parliament leadership had been blocking the commission for six months.
‘For half a year, the draft resolution had not been submitted to the vote. During these six months, hundreds of Ukrainian soldiers who did not have appropriate fortifications died. This is not just a question of corruption – it is a question of the lives of Ukrainian civilians, Ukrainian soldiers and the protection of our territory,’ the former president stressed.
The commission will consider the construction of fortifications in the frontline areas and the supply of drones to the armed forces.
Yesterday, in his parliament speech, Petro Poroshenko demanded to create the investigative commission.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
