Member of Parliament from the Opposition Platform — For Life Ihor Abramovych wrote a statement resigning his mandate
Member of Parliament from the banned in Ukraine party "Opposition Platform — For Life" Ihor Abramovych 6 in February wrote a statement resigning his mandate. He, on the first day of the full-scale invasion by the Russian Federation, 24 February 2022 of the year, became the first member of the OPFL who left the faction of this political force.
This was reported by the head of the Servant of the People faction, Davyd Arakhamiya. He said that then, in February 2022-th, Abramovych’s act became an example for other members of the OPFL faction to follow; now deputies from this political force again should emulate the example of the former colleague.
"Today Ihor Abramovych wrote a statement resigning his mandate. It was his exit from the OPFL ranks on the first day of the full-scale invasion that laid the groundwork for its further collapse in the Ukrainian parliament. Therefore I hope that his decision today to resign from deputy powers will likewise become an example for other deputies from the banned OPFL to follow," noted Arakhamiya.
He also stated that Abramovych, unlike the vast majority of his party colleagues, adhered to a pro-Ukrainian position. Therefore he often voted against the party line.
"Igor, with his pro-Ukrainian position, was never associated in my view with the ideology of OPFL. Just look at the "synchrony" of his voting with former party members. In simple terms—one of our own among enemies in the rear of the fifth column," writes Arakhamiya.
The head of the ruling party’s faction also recalled that Abramovych created the deputy group "Restoration of Ukraine," which, according to Arakhamiya, "consistently supports all important for the country’s future and resistance to the aggressor legislative decisions, during the war’s hardest months only strengthening our parliament’s resilience against the external aggressor."
"Therefore I urge other deputies from the banned OPFL faction to follow this example. It is high time to finally feel the mood of society in 11-months of the full-scale war," concluded Arakhamiya.
The head of the Servant of the People faction did not disclose the specific reasons that prompted Abramovych to resign the mandate.
