If Regions Party members unblock Rada by force, it still won't work until personal voting ensured, Turchynov says
The opposition is not afraid the parliament will be unblocked by force, Batkivschyna faction MP Oleksandr Turchynov has said.
"We're not afraid of any attempt to unblock the platform in the morning or in the evening. Unblocking will achieve nothing," he told journalists on Wednesday, asked whether the opposition is afraid the Regions Party members on the night of Wednesday to Thursday could unblock platform and the parliament's presidium by force to open the second session of Verkhovna Rada on Thursday.
"The Verkhovna Rada won't work in such format. But the representatives of the Regions Party will also stand with us. Let them stand, let them also work and be on duty as well," Turchynov said adding that " normal work is possible only if the implementation of the Constitution and law on personal voting is observed."
"Otherwise, they will block, we'll block, but there will be no work - and falsification of bills as well," the MP said.
He also said that the MPs of three oppositional factions, UDAR, Batkivschyna and Svoboda, would coordinate and agree their actions irrespective who is on the duty in the session hall.
