This was reported by the State Administration of Affairs in response to a request from the Ukrainian channel “112”.
At the same time, other presidents whose term of office had already ended did not receive social payments from the State Administration of Affairs in 2017.
“In addition, in 2017, the State Administration of Affairs did not provide housing, financial assistance, compensation, benefits, or other incentives to the above-mentioned persons,” the response says.
In 2018, as of January 16, information on payments to presidents was not received by the State Administration due to the fact that they are carried out at the end of the month.
At the same time, the Pension Fund of Ukraine refused to name the size of the pensions of the ex-presidents of Ukraine, saying that this information is not subject to disclosure.
