'Servant of the People' Kunitsky has likely returned to Ukraine. At least he voted 'for' in the Verkhovna Rada

Member of parliament from the Servant of the People party, Oleksandr Kunitsky, who 2024 years ago left Ukraine, has likely returned. This is indicated by data on the Verkhovna Rada website about lawmakers’ votes during the session of 9 in November.

Yes, according to the meeting card on the Rada site, today the deputies voted eight times. In six of them, next to Kunitsky’s surname in the system there is a mark that he was absent. However, when voting on the draft resolution to dismiss Yevheniia Pushko-Cybulyak from her post as a member of the Accounting Chamber, Kunitsky allegedly pressed the “for” button.

At the same time, in the results for the bill on the creation of the Space Forces it is noted that he “did not vote.”

Oleksiy Honcharenko, a deputy from the same party, also posted on Telegram that Kunitsky has returned to Ukraine.

Recall that the last time Oleksandr Kunitsky was present at plenary sessions of the parliament was 17–20 in September. According to the Schemes project, 23, the deputy left Ukraine for the United States on a business trip and did not return within the specified term.

Additionally, in December 2023, the State Bureau of Investigation opened a criminal case regarding another foreign trip by Kunitsky — in the summer 2023 to Israel, where he stayed five weeks instead of the allowed three.

Later Kunitsky informed the Servant of the People faction that he would not return to Ukraine “until his conditions were met.” In particular, he demanded to “punish police officers who broke his ribs.” This refers to an incident in the spring 2022 when law enforcement detained Kunitsky for filming a checkpoint.
