He said he had received a new proposal.
Member of Parliament from 'Servant of the People', deputy head of the committee on energy and housing and communal services Andriy Zhupanin wrote a statement of resignation.
This was confirmed by LB.ua.
“Yes, that’s true,” Zhupanin confirmed.
The reason for his decision he named a new offer: “There is a proposal, it would be a sin to refuse.”
At the same time, another LB.ua interviewee from ‘Servant of the People’ said that currently about 20 such statements have been filed.
He named two main reasons.
“Many people say — we’re just exhausted. We have everything. I mean money generally. And we don’t have an opportunity to spend it on ourselves, on our families, on mistresses, etc. Before it at least gave status, and now you are cursed,” he said.
The second reason, according to him, is pressure from law enforcement and anti-corruption bodies. “All the law enforcement and anti-corruption people work against you. I have colleagues who change their phone numbers every month. I almost every week go to NABU and DBR. Not that we are saints,” the interviewee said.
According to him, the faction has a principled position not to release majoritarian MPs.
When asked who these 20 deputies are, he replied: “I can’t say. But according to David Arakhamia (head of the faction), there is a principled position not to release majors. List MPs are released.”
Another member of parliament from ‘Servant of the People’ told LB.ua that he was surprised by the situation around Zhupanin.
According to him, there are “some strange and sometimes even worrying things” happening in Parliament.
He also drew attention to conflicting information about government personnel: “Everyone writes that there is a submission for ministers, and I just asked the Secretariat, they say no submissions have been entered yet.”
