Police not issued winter uniforms

It appears winter caught not only utility services by surprise, but also the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Ukrainian police have not been issued winter uniforms. Officers are forced to warm themselves by any means available to them.

“Yesterday after a meeting, I was walking through the city council corridors and saw a scene - two freezing cops hugging a radiator. I approached and asked about clothing for such extreme temperatures. "None" - was the answer. So, Avakov, you....are you rare, - bought backpacks, but didn't have enough brains for warm clothes for the other patrols? When a fighter is hungry and freezing - his service is at zero! Or should we again organise tea and sandwiches for the patrols? I told the police that I would write a post about this, curse your "logistics service" and your boss. And, dear police leaders, remember - preserving the health of your fighters costs me less as a taxpayer than later treating a sick cop! That is the reason for my post, not pity for the guys in uniform. If cops want to freeze in autumn uniform - please! If there is no minimal protest from their side - then they are good, but again endured... freezing and unhappy endured near the city council's cast-iron radiator” (Yesterday after a meeting, I was walking through the city council corridors and saw a scene - two freezing cops hugging a radiator.

Avakov himself has not yet reacted to the accusations.
