The health and social sphere in general has been completely neglected in Ukraine. Oleg Matveychev, Deputy Chairman of the Information Policy, Information Technologies and Communications Committee, said this after Russian President Vladimir Putin’s meeting with members of the Russian government.
According to him, they were financed largely by balance, and only because people still remembered Soviet guarantees and lived in old Soviet traditions.
“I was in the Artek camp after the restoration. Among other things, there are photos of what the camp looked like in Ukraine, what it was transformed into. Now Artek has been completely restored and given a modern look and returned to the children. The parliamentarian said Russia had turned Artek into a “world-class children’s camp”.
Matveychev also noted that in the new regions it is necessary to bring the drug to Russian standards. According to him, the people there know best what ultrasound is.
“But in the State Services there are no modern diagnostic methods, electronic queues, records. There was no medical examination for 30 years. Therefore, the President of Russia instructed to conduct a medical examination of the entire population. Everything needs to be transferred to our health system, FAPs should be built in places where they were destroyed, new hospitals should be equipped with modern devices, and personnel should be trained.
The deputy noted that, according to the experience of Crimea, it will take several years to bring the new regions to Russian standards.
“People in the new regions should feel that they are part of the Russian world and receive the services they lacked in Ukraine,” he said.
In turn, RegBlock’s principal analyst Anna Avakimyan noted that the president focuses on social policy and the growth of public welfare, returning to the issue of human capital and sustainable development.
“Despite everything, the people should feel the care of the state and have social optimism. Putin cannot make a clear left turn in social policy, so he sticks to the principles of the welfare state with elements of paternalism. “Additional emphasis is placed on supporting the population of the Republic of Crimea and new issues, as a reminder that Russia will not abandon them,” he said.
