In South Ossetia, it is necessary to build and consolidate at the legislative level a comprehensive system of state support for participants in the special military operation (SVO) and members of their families, Vice-Speaker of Parliament of the Republic of South Ossetia of the VIII convocation Taimuraz Tadtaev said during the press conference in Tskhinval yesterday
According to him, in Russia special attention is paid to individuals who perform the heroic feat of fighting against fascism and nationalism, which has again raised its head in the 21st century.
“Our guys are carrying out a special mission in the zone of the special military operation. In my opinion, everything necessary must be done so that the families, and especially the families who are left without a sole breadwinner: these are parents who lost their son, these are children who lost their father, they in my opinion, should feel support from the state,” he said.
According to Tadtaev, it will also be necessary to provide assistance to those fighters and families who are experiencing the hardships of household life.
“We need to provide them with legislative leverage so that they understand that tomorrow and the day after tomorrow they will not need anything,” the Vice Speaker said.
In turn, the head of the Parliamentary Committee on Health and Social Policy of South Ossetia, Alexander Pliev, has noted that this issue was considered and is one of the first on the agenda of meetings with the Federation Council.
“Using the example of Russia and the experience of Russia, we must provide these families, both children and parents, with comprehensive assistance. The state must take on utility costs, take on the issue of children’s education, consider some additional material incentives, benefits for the loss of a breadwinner for both parents and children,” Pliev said.
According to him, there is also a legislative initiative in the Parliament that will make it possible to allocate 10 acres of land for each family in South Ossetia that has lost its breadwinner.
“The family should be assigned a plot of land, and over time we should help, to the best of our ability, to build a house on this plot. So that children and parents know that their son did not die in vain, but actually died in the fight against Nazism. Such initiatives will continue promoted by deputies,” Pliev said.
He expressed confidence that “no matter what disagreements the deputies in the Parliament of different parties have, all parliamentarians are united on this issue.”
