Monetization of the subsidy in Ukraine will be held in two stages. The minister of social policy says that firstly the monetization will be refered to the households with individual heating. People will receive money, but will have higher responsibility for not paying the taxes. The second stage concerns people who live in apartment buildings with central heating. In this case there will be an individual bill to avoid the situation when all the flats are cut off the heating because of debt of one of the residents. When the heating season is finished, people will be able to get money for individual accounts if there are any left. Subsidy monetization will be launched on 1 January, 2019.
The Kremlin ignored the proposal of Ukraine to exchange 23 Russian prisoners to Ukrainian ones. They still show no interest to their citizens in Ukraine.
