"Want to raise salaries for yourself during the war?
The People's Deputy of the European Solidarity faction Oleg Syniutka called the doubtful expediency of creating the Ministry of National Unity of Ukraine and the appointment of the Chairman of the Board of Naftogaz of Ukraine Alexei Chernyshov for the position of head of the new department. The EU People's Deputy said that the need for these decisions was not sufficiently substantiated and there should be other issues on the agenda in the Verkhovna Rada today.
In his turn, the People's Deputy from the "Servant of the People" faction, Volodymyr Kreydenko, answered the opponent that his colleagues from "European solidarity" during the war "broke away from reality.
" He stated that the current authorities have taken more steps towards European integration than any previous one, and at the same time deals with the restoration of the country inside, but due to lack of funding and war with the Russian Federation it is impossible to achieve economic growth in Ukraine.
"Let us remind us that we are going to war, to our colleague, which may have come off from reality and wants to see during a full -scale invasion of economic growth and raising wages for ourselves. No, it will not. Everyone will work for our victory," - People's deputy Vladimir Kreenko said. We will remind, in the project of the budget for 2025 the increase of the cost of work of people's deputies was laid.
The annual activity of one deputy next year will cost the budget for UAH 650 thousand more expensive than in 2024. Focus found out how appropriate it is to spend millions on officials. Of the UAH 2. 28 million per deputy per year, 240 thousand are provided for compensation for the cost of renting a home or hotel room, 90 thousand - for compensation for the fare. The work of the People's Deputy from the budget will allocate 190 thousand hryvnias a month.
However, the People's Deputy from "European Solidarity", a member of the Committee of the Council on Budget Alexei Goncharenko explained that 190 thousand is not a net income. According to Goncharenko, the amount includes the salaries of assistants and other costs of activity, and the net salary of the People's Deputy is about 50 thousand hryvnias.
