During the meeting, the parties discussed ways to resolve a set of social issues related to the consequences of the spread of COVID-19 in Ukraine, the president’s press service reports.

In particular, the key focus was on social support and patronage of the most socially vulnerable groups of population, as well as the support for family-based care and children who returned to biological families.
