State-seized assets to benefit war veterans — ARMA
Seized assets under state management will be directed towards rehabilitation of veterans, Ukraine’s Asset Recovery and Management Agency (ARMA) announced on Jan. 20.
In particular, seized sanatoriums and resorts are to be transferred for military rehabilitation through a simplified procedure. The agency submitted a corresponding bill to the Ukrainian parliament.
Serhiy Kunitsyn, head of the Advisory Council on Veterans Affairs, has sent a letter to Ruslan Stefanchuk, the parliament’s Speaker, urging him to bring the bill to the floor as soon as possible.
Additionally, the bill proposes transferring industrial equipment that can be useful on the frontlines to the military immediately and without competition. Furthermore, it envisages support for veterans and their families in securing housing, temporary accommodation, and employment at enterprises managed by ARMA.
On Jan. 20, the Asset Recovery and Management Agency and the Advisory Council on Veterans Affairs signed a memorandum of cooperation.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
