These expenditures include: salaries and wages for military and civilian workers, social support to military forces, maintenance, military researches and development and also military aid. <\/p>\n<p>In this category of expenditures are excluded civil defense and current expenditures made for the previous military activities (such as veteran\u2019s benefits) and destruction of weapons.
