In particular, from July 1, 2014 in Ukraine, assistance for the birth of a second and third child is being reduced, and assistance for caring for a child under three years of age is being cancelled. In addition, minimum wages and pensions are frozen until the end of the year.
The Ukrainian government saves on the low-income and socially vulnerable, while deputies and government officials do not even think about cutting their salaries and pensions, activists say.
Today, at the building of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, representatives of the public and mothers who are affected by the “anti-crisis” economy signed an appeal to the government, in which they demand to cancel the “anti-crisis package”, and submitted it to the Constitutional Court.
