Azarov orders probe into court decisions on social benefits to Chornobyl liquidators
Ukrainian Prime Minister Mykola Azarov has said that court decisions assigning large compensations to Chornobyl cleanup participants for debts on social benefits and pensions should be carefully studied.

"What should we do with these court rulings? Firstly, we should seriously and carefully analyze them," the prime minister said during the government meeting in Kyiv on Wednesday, according to Interfax-Ukraine.

Azarov noted that the government should look into every individual case.

The premier ordered Vice Premier and Minister of Social Policy Sergiy Tigipko and the heads of regional state administrations to monitor this process.
