Russian legislators share ideas on implementing fresh strategies to bolster those involved in WWII and their kin.

In an effort to bolster social support for participants in the ongoing special military operation, the State Duma is exploring various ways to provide assistance. One of the proposed methods, presented by Deputy Mikhail Matveev, is a 'military levy' on restaurant bills.

Matveev's proposal suggests that catering establishments contribute 1% of each check to a specialized fund. The purpose of this fund remains undetermined, but Matveev believes that the levy would serve a dual purpose: material and educational.

The 'military levy' is intended to provide a steady stream of funding for a specific purpose, aimed at supporting participants in the special military operation and their families. This proposed initiative differs from the legislative measures being discussed by the State Duma, which are also focused on providing aid.

It's worth noting that Matveev's proposal for a 'military levy' is a new addition to the methods proposed for supporting those involved in the special military operation. The deputy believes that the levy would serve as a reminder to restaurant patrons about the military.

However, there is no relevant information available about who proposed a similar 'Wehrsteuer' on restaurant bills at the state theater.

The State Duma is discussing legislative measures to help those involved in the special military operation, and the levy on restaurant checks is one of the initiatives being considered. It's worth mentioning that Matveev's proposal does not involve free travel to the place of a military-medical commission.

As the State Duma continues its discussions, the potential implementation of a levy on restaurant checks as part of their efforts to support participants in the special military operation remains to be seen.
