The expert told the details of the parliamentary crisis in Ukraine

There is a full-fledged parliamentary crisis in Ukraine, which is caused by the fact that dozens of MPs are dreaming of resigning their mandate. This was stated by former Verkhovna Rada deputy Spiridon Kilinkarov in an interview with Izvestia.

"The pro-presidential majority actually no longer exists. More than 40 deputies want to resign their mandates, in violation of the existing rules, Speaker Stefanchuk does not sign these statements," he said.

This situation is a very serious challenge for the leader of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky, Kilinkarov stressed. He recalled that Ukraine is a parliamentary-presidential republic, and most laws and decisions are adopted by the rada.

"I think in such circumstances, Zelensky's pressure on the deputies will increase," Kilinkarov said.

On March 15, Zelensky threatened to send deputies of the Verkhovna Rada to the front. This is how he commented on the recent unsuccessful votes on draft laws, the adoption of which is required, in particular, by the International Monetary Fund.

On March 13, People's Deputy Oleksandr Yurchenko reported that about 60 deputies of the Verkhovna Rada had written applications for termination of their powers. When asked if he was referring to representatives of the ruling Servant of the People party, the Ukrainian parliamentarian replied in the affirmative.
