Kyiv. Ukraine. Ukraine Gate – April 26, 2021 – Ukraine News
” Yes, I am ready to lead the party, if it is the will of the party members,” he said in a comment to NV.
Now the Voice party is headed by MP Kira Rudyk. In March 2020, she is to replace musician Sviatoslav Vakarchuk, who announced his resignation from parliament in June.
Since mid-March, the party’s divisions have deepened due to a vote in the Verkhovna Rada on a bill to amend the Constitution and allow the president to appoint NABU and DBR directors. Some people’s deputies from the Voice supported the submission of the draft law on NABU and DBR for consideration by the Constitutional Court.
Yaroslav Yurchyshyn noted that the deputies voted to hear the opinion of the CCU on the expansion of the president’s powers. Oleksandra Ustinova noted that it was “a technical and tactical step to prevent the pro-government bill from being voted on quickly.”
According to her, some deputies of the faction received a warning about possible expulsion from the party because of this vote.
But the Voice leadership believes that the bill “makes the president de facto the owner of these departments” and deprives NABU and the DBR of independence.
The leadership stated that the party regularly opposed the increase of the president’s powers: “That is why such a vote is a violation of the consistency of the party’s position.”
Ten MPs from the Voice faction issued a joint statement criticizing the party’s current leadership and calling for its re-election at a congress of the political force.
Solomiya Bobrovsky, Halyna Vasylchenko, Yulia Klymenko, Roman Lozynsky, Natalia Pipa, Olga Stefanyshyna, Yaroslav Yurchyshyn, Volodymyr Tsabal, and Andriy Sharaskin believe that in recent months party and faction leaders have allegedly used the political force “ as a tool to satisfy their own interests. to the authorities “.
They said they did not share ” the party leadership’s refusal to protect anti-corruption bodies and fight corruption.”
People’s deputies called for organizing a congress of the Voice to ” improve the situation in the party” and re-elect the leadership.
On March 24, the Voice stated that no one would be expelled from the party.
