The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine decided to create a new state institution — the National Military Memorial Cemetery.

This was reported by the representative of the Cabinet of Ministers in the Verkhovna Rada, Taras Melnychuk.

The architectural complex will include its own military cemetery, a museum complex, a ritual building and other necessary facilities for the organization of honorable burials.

Within a two-month period, the Ministry of Veterans Affairs must ensure the activities of the newly created institution. Construction, maintenance, and protection of the territory of the cemetery will be at the expense of the state budget. Burial expenses will also be covered by state funds.
