She received 12 million rubles from Russia for her husband, but nothing from her native Buryatia: the widow of a soldier killed in Ukraine complained to the All-Russia People's Front.
Lyudmila Tsydenova during an ONF stream in Buryatia. called She asked why the families of fallen soldiers weren't entitled to regional payments. She explained that her husband, Junior Sergeant Bator Tsydenov, served under contract and died in March of this year. According to the Telegram channel "Inform Polis," the family had already received 12 million rubles in federal payments for the soldier's death. However, the widow had also hoped for regional payments, but they were denied. Lyudmila Tsydenova explained that in some regions, in addition to federal funds, they provide up to three million rubles from local budgets, but for some reason, such support is not available in Buryatia.
The broadcast's host, Alexander Tolmachev, a lawyer and member of the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry's Committee on Entrepreneurship in the Housing and Utilities Sector, confirmed that there are indeed no regional payments in Buryatia.
"Each region makes its own decisions. Some are wealthier, like Moscow or St. Petersburg, some are less wealthy, and some are downright impoverished and subsidized. I suspect Buryatia either hasn't made such a decision yet, or has, but the budget hasn't been formed yet. It's different in Moscow, a third in St. Petersburg, and a fourth in Arkhangelsk. Each government makes decisions in its own way. If you want Buryatia to make the same decisions as Moscow, it requires a different economy," Tolmachev replied.
Later the situation commented The Buryat branch of the People's Front officially confirmed that there are no regional payments to the families of fallen soldiers in the republic.
