On Friday, October 6, ‘Samopomich’ has excluded MP Nataliya Veselova from the faction because of her voting for law draft on special order of local self-government in Donbass. The appointed statement appeared in the website of a party.

It’s noted that party members are peremptorily against the extension of the law.

Moreover, the base to exclude was the ‘commission of actions that discredit the reputation of the faction and political party ‘Samopomich’, in particular, this is about the ‘initiating of a law drafts, which deny the occupation, deny the fact of occupation in public performances in spite of the position of a faction’.

It’s reported that it was offered to Veselova to leave the faction by herself, but she didn’t make such a decision, because of fears to lose the mandate.
