He noted that residents began to return to Mariupol more actively.
“The number one question people are asking is jobs. And people started coming back. When they saw that the restoration was underway, people began to actively return, the Deputy Prime Minister said.
He added that today, recovery aid is provided not only to the population, but also to businesses that are ready to create jobs.
