Putin also signed a decree that extends a payment of 5 million rubles to a number of new categories of persons in the event of their death during the SVO.

The document affects not only the workers who ensured the implementation of the special operation’s tasks, but also those who worked in the territories of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation adjacent to the areas where the special operation was carried out.

Responsibility for violation of the terms of the state defense order

The President also signed a law that establishes administrative liability for violating the terms of a government contract as part of the implementation of a state defense order.

In addition, a list of individuals with an unsatisfactory business reputation is being introduced, who are prohibited from holding a number of management positions in organizations involved in the production of ethyl alcohol or alcoholic beverages.

Payments to pensioners with dependent great-grandchildren

By another law, Putin approved the procedure for increasing the fixed payment to the old-age insurance pension and to the disability insurance pension for persons whose dependent great-grandchildren are under 18 years of age.

Agreement with Great Britain on fisheries

Among other things, the president denounced the fisheries agreement signed by Moscow and London in 1956.

As the Kremlin press service noted, the document has a “predominantly one-sided orientation,” and there are no commensurate benefits for the Russian side.

It is emphasized that, taking into account the decision of the British side to denounce the most favored nation regime in bilateral trade, the denunciation of the fisheries agreement “will not cause serious foreign policy and economic consequences” for Moscow.
