Abstract
The probation caused by the military aggression launched by the Russian Federation against Ukraine on February 24, 2022, necessitate a revision of most spheres of Ukrainian public life. The system of the State support of the population did not avoided these changes. More than 11 million citizens of Ukraine were forced to move to safer regions of our country or went to seek refuge abroad. The purpose of the article is to define the main problems of organizing the State support for the population in the conditions of military aggression. The government has identified three following directions of support for internally displaced persons (IDPs): money, work, housing. In the direction of «Money», monthly payments are provided to persons who have moved from the zones of active hostilities; to parents with children who, because of the military aggression of the Russian Federation, were forced to move to safer regions; to disabled persons. In the «Work» direction, payments were offered to employers for each employed IDP. In the direction of «Housing», compensation for utility payments for each IDP is provided to the families who sheltered them for free. The set of measures has a positive effect on the ordering of life of IDPs in their new place of residence, contributes to a faster search for work and housing. However, the actions of the authorities aimed at organizing the State support for the population in the conditions of military aggression have certain limitations: The Government of Ukraine works quite efficiently under martial law, but it should be noted that the objectively determined speed of decision-making, bypassing standard procedures, raises certain concerns in the medium and long term; there are certain problems with the placement of IDPs, as well as their provision. The burden on the State budget increases with an increase in the number of IDPs. The state of Ukraine’s economy is low-competitive, in this regard, the reliability and organization of the State support for the population depend on the assistance of international partners. However, the vector of development of social support of the population in the period of the post-war period should have a European integration orientation of Ukraine’s development. Such a focus will contribute to a faster transformation of the socioeconomic environment and strengthen the reliability of the social protection system.
