An unusual situation occurred during the discussion of the state budget in parliament: MP Zheleznyak made an unfortunate statement, confusing the categories entitled to a pay raise.
Slip of the tongue in the plenary hall
While speaking, the politician stated: “Підвищення зарплат народним депутатам — це позиція всього парламенту” (Raising the salaries of MPs is the position of the entire parliament). This phrase, which mentioned members of the legislative body instead of the military, caused laughter among those present.
Decision on the budget
Despite this incident, an amendment was included in the state budget providing for an increase in the level of pay specifically for military personnel.
