The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal, allowing the applicant to receive a pension based on foreign employment periods. The applicant argued that her work in the USSR should count as repatriant work, while the Social Insurance Institution initially rejected this due to lack of proof. The Court ruled that labor courts have the authority to determine repatriant status and evaluate evidence freely, overturning the lower court's rejection of the claim.
