The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyi, announced the launch of a number of new citizen support programs. The goal is to make it easier to get through the difficult winter period and provide help to those who need it most. A corresponding statement did Zelenskyi in the evening address.
According to him, government programs are already working: 17.8 million Ukrainians have benefited from “Winter Support”. Currently, new initiatives are being prepared for citizens and small businesses. “Programs have been launched that can support small businesses and FOPs at this time. This is, in particular, a program for servicing the purchase of generators and fuel. Only on the first day of this program, today there are already 4,000 applications,” Zelenskyi said.
In addition, the government will scale up the Heat Package program. According to the president, at least 30,000 such packages will be distributed in the coming days in the regions where the situation is the most difficult.
No less attention is paid to loans at 0% for the purchase of generators. A support program for the most vulnerable social groups is in operation – 374,000 Ukrainians have already received assistance of 6.5 thousand hryvnias. Zelensky emphasized: “There will be other support programs – today we discussed it with Prime Minister Yulia Svyridenko. Everyone should work as hard as possible to make this winter emergency time easier for people: the central government, regional authorities, communities, and businesses. And, of course, we expect that partners will not be left behind.”
The President emphasized that the government’s task is to do everything to ensure that citizens receive the necessary assistance quickly and without unnecessary bureaucratic obstacles. Winter support programs, loans and social packages should work as a “human shield” for Ukrainians in difficult times.
