🎙️ Prime Minister on TSN: “I guarantee it. Everything (with military salaries) will be fully stable. There’s no reason to worry about that.” And also: “there are absolutely no problems with this... we will definitely resolve it.”
🤷♂️ And in numbers it’s like this. In September they took 33,6 billion from the reserve for military salaries. The Accounting Chamber: by the end of the year, cash allowances need 265 billion more than planned. Member of the defense committee and my colleague on the TSC Vadym Ivchenko: “We don’t have two months’ worth of wages.”
Veteran Yuriy Hudymenko received complaints about nonpayments; most, he says, later received the money. Later….
💰 How much a servicemember receives. Platoon commander - 26 259 UAH as base pay. Minimum payment for a logistics servicemember - 30 thousand. In prices of 2022 this is 21 400, half as much as back then. And in the budget-2027, according to the finance minister, the money is included to pay as now. For courts for payroll +44%, for prosecutors +12%, increase of basic military allowances - zero.
📊 There was always money available for handouts: the “winter thousand” - 18 billion, for 1 500 - another 19,5.
✊ That’s why we conducted a budget audit: 274,6 billion without new taxes, of which 200 billion - for +20% to the military. Bonds 85 billion directly for salaries, de-shadowing 64,7, government reserve fund 40. And cash allowances are funded first: taking from them for anything else is prohibited. For a logistics servicemember this is 36 thousand instead of 30. We are still far from 2022, but this is the first step.
💁♂️ First reading of the budget - 26-30 October.
