KYIV, May 1 – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced Friday that his country will implement comprehensive military reforms, including enhanced compensation for armed forces personnel, improvements to the military contract system, and potential gradual release programs for long-term service members.
Speaking through his official Telegram channel, Zelenskyy outlined the timeline for these changes. “In June, the reform will begin – and the first results must already be delivered in June, particularly in the area of financial support for soldiers, sergeants, and commanders of the Defence Forces of Ukraine,” the president stated.
The military overhaul represents a significant shift in how Ukraine manages its armed forces as the country continues to face ongoing challenges.
