Poroshenko promises to raise servicemen’s salaries, pledges special pays for battles

The Ukrainian authorities will adjust Ukrainian servicemen's salaries according to inflation indexes. This is reported by Coruption.Info.

"I am confident that we will now take steps to carry out [wages] indexing. In addition, the government adopted a resolution under which [active duty soldiers] should be paid up to UAH 1,000 per every day of participation in military operations when enlisted in the field diary and included in field orders," Poroshenko said.

"As of today, more than UAH 1 million has already been paid, as was reported by ATO and Defense Ministry's senior officers," the president said.
