The need for systemic support to Ukrainian soldiers who became disabled as a result of hostilities

Amendment No. 5 | Doc. 16464 | 21 September 2026

Committee
Committee on Equality and Non-Discrimination
Origin
2026 - Fourth part-session
In the draft resolution, at the end of paragraph 11.3, insert the following sentence:

"The partners of LGBTI veterans with disabilities should be considered as ‘families and informal caregivers’ of veterans and be given access to the support programmes, psychological care, training and respite services available".

Explanatory note

The fact that there is no legislation expressly recognising same-sex couples in Ukraine should not lead to the discrimination of LGBTI veterans with disabilities as regards access to rights and services by them and their families, including their partners.
