**1. Substance of the Act**
This Decree of the President of Ukraine is an individual legal act in the field of state awards. The document officially confers the highest state distinction — the title of Hero of Ukraine, with the presentation of the Order of the Gold Star, upon Sergeant Roman Ihorovych Kharchenko. The award is conferred for his personal courage and heroism displayed in the defense of the state sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, as well as for his selfless service to the Ukrainian people.
**2. Structure of the Act, Key Provisions, and Amendments**
The structure of this Decree is concise and standard for individual legal acts on awards. It consists of a preamble, which sets out the grounds for the award, and one operative article on conferring the title upon a specific individual. Since this is a law-applying act of one-time application, it does not amend the effective legislation or codes, has no prior versions, and does not establish new generally binding rules of law.
**3. Key Provisions Important for Practical Application**
The most important aspect of this Decree is the legal certification of the status of Hero of Ukraine for Sergeant Roman Kharchenko. This document serves as the direct legal basis for the presentation of the Order of the Gold Star and the accrual of the recipient’s rights to benefits, social guarantees, and payments provided for by the Law of Ukraine “On State Awards of Ukraine” and other regulatory legal acts in the field of social protection of military personnel.
