The National University of Physical Education and Sports of Ukraine hosted an official presentation of the social project “NUPES with Respect to the Armed Forces of Ukraine”. This is an initiative aimed at supporting war veterans through sports rehabilitation, physical activity and inclusion in a healthy social environment.
The presentation was attended by representatives of the Ministry of Youth and Sports of Ukraine, the Ministry of Veterans Affairs of Ukraine, the National Guard of Ukraine, the Veterans Cluster of Ukraine, the KNUBA Veterans Institute, veterans’ organizations, public initiatives, businesses, military personnel and the sports community.
The project makes it possible to purchase or give a veteran a special sports season ticket that includes
“We welcome the initiative of the NUFVSU, which combines professionalism, resources and decent treatment of veterans. Such projects are an example of how the state and educational institutions can create new models of support. The Ministry of Youth and Sports will continue to promote such initiatives,” said Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports of Ukraine Serhiy Tymofeev during the event.
Each component of the season ticket is designed as part of a holistic recovery process. It is not just access to sports infrastructure, but a professionally developed program with an individual approach to each participant.
“NUFVSU has always been a place where champions were brought up, but today we set ourselves another important goal: to be a place where life is restored. We have created not just a product – we have created a support format that combines professionalism, care and gratitude,” said Oleksandr Pyzhov, Acting Rector of NUFVSU.
Special attention is paid to physical rehabilitation classes. The first three sessions are not standard workouts, but an individual diagnosis of the veteran’s condition, professional support from a rehabilitation therapist, testing the level of stress and selecting a personal program according to the physical condition, combat experience, injuries or psychological stress.
“This is not a set of services. It is a structured support system created by professionals who understand the specifics of post-traumatic recovery. It is an opportunity to return to a person a sense of control over the body, rhythm, and space. And – over life,” explained Viktor Korzh, Director of the Training and Rehabilitation Center of the NUFVSU.
As for the gym classes, each of the 12 workouts involves the support of an adaptive sports specialist or rehabilitation therapist. The goal is not just to provide physical activity, but to develop basic movement skills, restore the musculoskeletal system, build confidence in one’s own body, improve coordination and strength.
“It is important for a veteran not only to receive help, but also to feel that it is thoughtful, professional, and worthy. This project demonstrates exactly this approach – when every element is aimed at real recovery, not a formality. We appreciate the partnership with the NUFVSU and believe in the power of such initiatives,” said Talia Zharova, Head of the Veterans Sports Department of the Physical and Mental Health Department of the Ministry of Veterans Affairs.
The program also provides 8 visits to the sports pool, which can be used for relaxation, aqua therapy or muscle tone recovery after injuries.
Business representatives, Gledfarm LTD, was the first to support the project and purchase 20 season tickets for veterans.
“It is a great honor for us to join the initiative that helps our defenders return to a full life. Physical rehabilitation is not only about health, it is about faith in the future and the strength of the community,” said Rajiv Gupta, CEO of Gledpharm Ltd.
Anyone can buy a certificate – a relative, a fellow veteran, an organization, employers or just a person who cares. It can be presented to a veteran you know or transferred through the system of coordinators to a veteran who has applied to the program.

Naftogaz Group is already sending a payment request to Gazprom to recover $1.37 billion in accordance with the Final Award of the international arbitration in Zurich received by the company on June 20, 2025.
“If Gazprom refuses to comply with the decision voluntarily, Naftogaz will start implementing a strategy for the enforcement of the Russian company’s assets,” the company said in a press release on Tuesday.
As explained by the group, the amount of $1.37 includes the principal debt for gas transit services under the 2019 agreement, as well as penalties and compensation for all legal costs incurred by Naftogaz.
At the same time, the Group continues to enforce another arbitral award – on payment of $5 billion in compensation to the Russian Federation for the illegal expropriation of assets in Crimea in 2014.
“The enforcement process is ongoing at various stages in ten jurisdictions. In Finland and France, there are already first results – Russian property has been seized. In other countries, the work continues,” Naftogaz said.
For reasons of legal strategy, the company is not disclosing additional details at this time.
In most jurisdictions, the interests of Naftogaz are represented by leading local law firms free of charge, on a pro bono basis.
As reported with reference to Naftogaz CEO Serhiy Koretsky, the international arbitration tribunal, which considered in Switzerland the case of Gazprom’s violation of its contractual obligations on the take-or-pay principle, ordered the Russian corporation to pay $1.37 billion in favor of Naftogaz of Ukraine.
“In September 2022, Naftogaz initiated arbitration, which Gazprom tried to block through Russian courts. This did not work. Now we have the final decision: the tribunal of arbitrators from Sweden, Switzerland and Israel completely sided with Naftogaz,” Koretsky wrote on his Facebook page on Monday evening.
He reminded that Gazprom had violated its contractual obligations under the take-or-pay principle since May 2022 by stopping payments.
