The President of Ukraine noted that he held a meeting of the National Security and Defense Council (NSDC), and in addition to the decision on sanctions for "the de facto sale of Ukraine", another decision was made.
"There is also a decision regarding the prices of medications for our people – something that is urgently needed by the citizens of Ukraine. There is a way to reduce the price of the top 100 medical products by 30% starting March 1 – for the most essential medications for our people," said Zelensky.
According to him, all the details of this decision should be presented to Ukrainian society by the government.
"The changes must be significant and positive for millions of Ukrainians. This is the personal responsibility of officials and specifically the Minister of Health [Viktor Lyashko]," Zelensky stated.
