The so-called "authorities" of the "DPR" want to open departments of the Pension Fund of Ukraine on the occupied territories for pension payments to residents of t Donetsk region beyond the control. It was stated by the press secretary of "head of the delegation of the DPR" in the negotiations Denis Pushilin Victoria Talakina, - reports the separatist DAN website.
"Ukraine should resume the payment of pensions, as required by the Set of Measures and norms of international law. To implement this paragraph, Denis Pushilin made a proposal on the establishment of additional offices of the Pension Fund in the republic," - said Talakina.
Meanwhile, the Minsk Agreements, to which Talakina referred, say that social security payments on the occupied territories may be resumed only if they return to the legal framework of Ukraine.
