Zelensky orders government to prepare program to support temporarily displaced persons

He said this in a video address, Ukrinform reports.

"We already have a draft of this program. The first component is financial -- state support for all displaced persons, including adults and children, state support for jobs for such people where they stay temporarily, so that each of our people, each family could have a basis for life. The second component is housing. The government is preparing concrete proposals for the provision of housing for temporarily displaced persons right now and will organize the reconstruction of destroyed housing after the war," Zelensky said.

The third component of the program is to support those families who housed people from the area of hostilities or temporarily occupied territories.

"They will at least get compensation for expenses on utility services related to the stay of temporarily displaced persons," Zelensky said.

The head of state added that the government would provide clarifications on the program in the near future.
