The Ukrainian Red Cross has received the highest award of the Japanese Red Cross for its selfless work during the full-scale aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine.
“The Ukrainian Red Cross has received the highest award of the Japanese Red Cross for the selfless work of volunteers and staff during the full-scale war in Ukraine,” the Ukrainian Red Cross reported on Facebook on Sunday.
The award was presented to Ukrainian Red Cross Director General Maksym Dotsenko during a meeting with Japanese Red Cross President Atsushi Seike in Tokyo.
Later, the Ukrainian Red Cross leaders took part in an open meeting dedicated to the humanitarian situation in Ukraine and the problems and challenges faced by Ukrainians. The participants learned about the ways the Ukrainian Red Cross is helping to overcome the humanitarian crisis in the country and the long-term perspective of supporting Ukraine.
The open seminar was attended by more than 200 people, including Japanese Red Cross staff, representatives of the public sector, government and state agencies of Japan.
“In the short term, we are preparing for winter. It is going to be difficult. Today, Ukraine’s energy system is suffering significant damage due to constant missile attacks. Ukrainians are already suffering from power cuts. In winter, the load on the energy system will increase, as the population will need to be supplied with heat in addition to electricity. In the long term, our work will be focused on the mental and physical rehabilitation of civilians and veterans,” said Dotsenko at the briefing.
According to Ilya Kletskovskiy, Deputy Director General of the Ukrainian Red Cross, the main task now is “not to let the world forget about the ongoing war in Ukraine and to help as many Ukrainians as possible.”

The draft law No. 10346 on state regulation of production and circulation of ethyl alcohol, alcohol distillates, bioethanol, alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, tobacco raw materials, liquids used in electronic cigarettes, and fuel adopted by the Parliament provides for a number of exemptions for craft products.
This was announced by Ivan Marchuk, Chairman of the Subcommittee on State-Business Interaction and Investment of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Economic Development.
“For the first time in more than 30 years of our independence, we have jointly structured legislation designed to lay down the most comfortable and unified principles for the development of the Big (small) Craft Four – small winemakers, small distillers, small honey producers and small brewers,” he wrote on Facebook.
Marchuk called the main elements of the “craft revolution” the permission for small brewers to produce 1 million liters and at the same time have a declaration instead of the burdensome and costly certification of production.
For all craft producers, the rules for obtaining a license in electronic form within 10 days and reporting on production and turnover once a year were unified and re-enforced;
At the same time, fines for failure to submit or late submission of reports with inaccurate information on production and turnover volumes, etc. were reduced by 10 times.
“Of course, there is no limit to improvement, we will continue to improve the legislation for SMEs. We have already agreed to work on the possibility for small winemakers to produce semi-sparkling wines “petnats” under a “small license” and other useful benefits, which will be discussed later,” the MP summarized.
