President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting on the restoration and reconstruction of housing infrastructure in the country that was destroyed or damaged in the war with Russia.

The meeting was also attended by Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Yermak and his deputy Kyrylo Tymoshenko, Minister of Infrastructure of Ukraine Oleksandr Kubrakov, the leadership of the Servant of the People parliamentary faction, well-known Ukrainian architects.

The head of state listened to proposals on solving problems with the construction of

temporary housing in settlements affected by the war, in particular on the example of Kyiv region. For this purpose it is planned to build special modular towns.

It is expected that this will be high-quality, comfortable housing in which residents of the affected cities will be able to live for a long time, while the reconstruction of their homes or the construction of new housing continues.

Zelenskyy said that any projects to restore or develop housing infrastructure should be aimed at ensuring that Ukrainians return home. They must also provide opportunities to address the issue of providing permanent housing for the Ukrainian military, which is heroically defending our country.

In addition, the President studied a modern memorial complex project, which will tell the story of the world-famous destroyed bridge in the village of Romanivka, Kyiv region, connecting Irpin and Bucha with the city of Kyiv. According to the authors of the project, visitors to this complex will be able to immerse themselves in the atmosphere that prevailed during the evacuation in this place.

"It is important that we perpetuate this place. And people will be able to feel everything that happened here. It will be a monument to our path to victory," the President said.
