The completion of the Holodomor Museum for almost 600 million hryvnias: money cannot be allocated for the Armed Forces - People's Deputy

Roksolana Podlas, the chairman of the budget committee, calls the decision balanced. The state budget expenditures for the 2023th year will not increase, the politician promises. The bill will give an additional UAH 573. 9 million to complete the construction and commissioning of the second stage of the Museum of Holodomor-Genocide. The main events will take place on his platform for the 90s of the Holodomor, Podlas said. "This will allow to complete the entire complex of works in the short term.

The decision will help restore historical justice for Ukrainians, affirmation in our society and among the entire international community of intolerance to any manifestations of aggression and violence," she said. The memory of the Holodomor in Ukraine was actively restored in 2005 for President Viktor Yushchenko. The National Museum of Holodomor-Genocide began to be built on the slopes of the Dnieper near the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra and the Arsenal metro station.

In 2010, a memorial was opened and the other part should become a museum. The construction of the complex was stopped due to the beginning of a full -scale invasion of Russia. The People's Deputy from the "servant of the people" Yevgeny Kravchuk, in a conversation with focus, reminded that from the budget of Ukraine they spent about UAH 1 billion in the construction of the memorial. "If you do not finance again, it means to preserve all the allocated funds and construction itself. This amount [573.

9 million hryvnias] cannot be allocated to the army because it was redistributed from another budget article, which is funded by donors. Or contributions to the budget from other countries cannot be used to the army or weapons, "Kravchuk explained. The People's Deputy added that the Ukrainian army is financed completely at the expense of taxpayers. "We show that even in a full -scale war, Ukraine remembers the famine dead during the Holodomor. , - she said.

The expert of the Ukrainian Institute of National Memory, People's Deputy Vladimir Vyatrovich, also advocates the construction of the project. The appearance of the Museum of Holodomor in Ukraine will become an instrument of communicating the truth about the crimes of Russia, he said. "The maximum of resources should go into two things now: armed forces and culture. Russia's resistance is based on a cultural level. If we talk about saving for the cost of the Armed Forces, I support.

I was a co -author of the bill that redistributes the funding of a" single marathon. " hryvnias, they can be spent more efficiently - to support the army, " - said Vyatrovich. The allocation of more than half a billion hryvnias for the completion of the National Museum of Holodomor-Genocide has caused conflicting thoughts on social networks. Some of the Ukrainians have found an inappropriate violation of this issue in wartime.

It is better to invest in defense, and museums can be completed after victory. Many send money to buy things and equipment for combat units, volunteers send them to the front, so the spending of such large funds raises questions. The Armed Forces Sagittarius Oleg Simorosis drew attention to the problem and stressed that honoring the memory of the victims of the Holodomor is an important and correct step, as well as the construction of the museum.

In his opinion, if the soldiers do not stand on the front, there will be anywhere to build museums. "But I apologize. We already have an anti -terrorist operation? There is nothing to allocate for a half -billion in a country of war? Can the Armed Forces fully equipped with drones, cars, communication and antitrone rifles? One and a half thousand kilometers of the active front, heavy battles, and they are crazy money The museums are thrown away. These funds could save more than one life . . .
