Traitors and Collaborators Will Receive Minimum Pension.

Pension Restrictions for Those Convicted of Crimes Against National Security

The Verkhovna Rada adopted a law that provides for the limitation of pension payments to individuals convicted of intentional crimes against national security. According to the new law, the pension for these individuals will be paid at no more than the subsistence minimum for persons who have lost their ability to work.

In particular, individuals who have committed crimes against the foundations of national security, public safety, peace, human security, and international law and order may fall under these restrictions. Moreover, restrictions on pension payments will take effect from the first day of the month following the month in which the law comes into effect.

According to the Constitution of Ukraine, the pension cannot be less than one subsistence minimum for persons who have lost their ability to work. Currently, this amount is 2361 UAH.

Those convicted of these crimes have the right to state pension provision for old age, disability, due to the loss of a breadwinner, and in other cases provided for by law.

Analysis

The law on pension restrictions for those convicted of crimes against national security is an important step in strengthening legality and combating crime. It aims to prevent the commission of similar offenses in the future and to punish guilty individuals. It is crucial to ensure compliance with the law in practical activities and to prevent its circumvention.
