Deputy Yaroslav Nilov was expelled from the Liberal Democratic Party

The Presidium of the LDPR Supreme Council has decided to expel the head of the State Duma Committee on Labor, Yaroslav Nilov, from the party. This was announced on June 25 by the party's leader Leonid Slutsky.

"The decision was made by an absolute majority of votes. I agree with the decision of the presidium of the Supreme Council of the party," he told reporters.

According to Slutsky, Nilov's expulsion from the Liberal Democratic Party is due to a violation of party discipline.

Nilov has been a member of the Liberal Democratic Party since 1997.

On April 3, the State Duma adopted a resolution prematurely terminating the powers of LDPR deputy Yuri Napso. The reason for this decision was the conclusion of the Commission on parliamentary ethics, which found that the Napso does not perform its duties for 30 days or more, and also does not attend meetings.
