In turn, the acting governor of the Kherson region, Volodymyr Saldo, said that Ukrainian armed formations regularly make unsuccessful attempts to force the Dnieper.

Children of NWO



The LDPR will soon submit to the State Duma a bill introducing the status of "children of a special military operation," said the leader of the Liberal Democratic Party, the head of the Duma Committee on International Affairs, Leonid Slutsky.







According to him, the document will allow the adoption of regulations on the introduction of benefits for them, systemic or one-time payments by analogy with the "children of war" group.


Slutsky explains that this category will include those people whose childhood was spent in four new regions of the Russian Federation (Donetsk and Lugansk people's republics, Kherson and Zaporozhye regions) and fell on the period of hostilities during the NWO.


“Over the past nine years, almost a whole generation has grown up, whose childhood was spent under the explosions of these same shells with the inscriptions “Children of Donbass” and the threat of de-Russification.


We all remember it.


Today, hundreds of thousands of them have become citizens of the Russian Federation, they rely on us and the status that recognizes this category of our population, the right to compensation is the least that we can do for these children of the Russian world today, ”the press service of the party quotes him.
