Vashchuk withdrew from the PR. Together with him, members of the City Council Martin, Sokhanych and Homonay (Statement)

Fedir Vashchuk did withdraw from the ranks of the ruling party. The official statement was posted on the website of Uzhgorod National University.

Here is the text: 

"Dear Transcarpathians!

The processes occurring today in the PR, do not give us the opportunity to work on the development of the Ukrainian state.

At the beginning of the political crisis, when hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian were peacefully defending their civil rights and freedoms on the streets, we asked the government to return to European development vector and prevent bloodshed. But we were not heard. Events of the last three months have shown that unfortunately we have hopeless developments leading to civil war and the collapse of the state. The party leaders were not able to find the right way and all our attempts to resolve the conflict within the party were unsuccessful.

We, members of Uzhgorod City Council declare our withdrawal from the Party of Regions and the corresponding fraction. We urge all of our associates – Transcarpathian deputies of all levels – to follow our example. No political party is worth a human life.

Members of City Council

Fedir Vashchuk

Victor Martin

Fedir Sokhanych
