According to the head of the Cabinet, such a decision was worked out jointly by experts from the Ministry of Economic Development, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Finance. In addition, it will be in force until the time of drafting and adoption of the bill, which has already been discussed at various venues.

Groisman also noted that the government was looking for a long time options for increasing the pension to the military. In particular, that was without changes in the legislation of Ukraine.

"We have done this, and today we will decide to raise pensions for servicemen by an average of 1500 hryvnia.

Also, I promised that the pension will be increased from January 1, 2018, and I keep fulfilling another promise. All recounting will be carried out from January 1, "- stressed the prime minister..

At the same time, he called on the Verkhovna Rada to pass a law that would make this increase permanent.

Recall, as previously reported, "URA-Inform," Brazilian President Mishel Temer was forced to prove that he is alive, since he was detained for a few months pension.
