Veterans Affairs Minister Kim held a press conference during the presentation of the department's work priorities. The main thing he said: in 2027, it is planned to allocate three billion hryvnias more to the old policy. According to him, funding will be increased for housing and family rehabilitation programs for veterans. The ministry is preparing a reform of the state service for accompanying veterans in order to introduce uniform standards of assistance. Experts are planned to be financed from the state budget, and efficiency will be evaluated based on the results of solving problems and cases. The reform is planned to be tested in Kharkiv and Mykolaiv regions. During the year they plan to create a platform where information about public organizations and services for veterans will be collected. Organizations that meet the stated standards will be able to receive approval from the department regarding their experience and the quality of their work. In 2027, they plan to start designing branches of the National Military Cemetery in five regional centers of Ukraine. So far, eight districts have submitted their bids for plots of land. The ministry plans to submit by the end of 2026 a bill that will comprehensively regulate veterans policy. According to Kim, 90% of the document's instructions have already been agreed upon with the veteran community and experts. Legislative changes are being developed that will allow consideration of the veteran's health and the need for treatment during the examination of criminal cases in certain cases. It is about the possibility of combining the legal process with treatment and rehabilitation. The proposal would apply to certain categories of offenses and would not establish automatic immunity from liability for serious crimes.
