Decree Amending the List of Positions Filled by Military Personnel in State Bodies Regarding the Position of Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine
The decree is structurally composed of two points: the first defines a new version of the provision regarding the position of Deputy Minister of Defense, and the second establishes the procedure for entry into force.
The key provision of the decree is establishing for the position of Deputy Minister of Defense (which may be filled during martial law) a maximum military rank of ‘Lieutenant General, Vice Admiral’ and a tariff grade of ‘4’. This clarification is important for determining the status and level of monetary compensation for a military servicemember in this position.
