“Self-help” turned out to be “Self-help”: the new “zrada” in the Ukrainian parliament is connected with Donbass

Deputies of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine from the Samopomich faction have changed their minds about expelling their colleague Natalya Veselova, who criticized the blockade of Donbass. Veselova herself believes that this is due to a change in the faction’s position regarding the blockade.

The MP reported this on her Facebook page , reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.

“Self-Help” did not expel me from the faction, so it changed its position on the blockade. On October 3, a meeting of the Samopomich faction was held, at which the issue of expelling me from the faction was to be decided. However, “Self-Help” did not find enough votes for this.

I hope this is the result of my explanatory work. Today everyone can already see that the blockade of ORDLO brings great economic losses to Ukraine, and also alienates these territories from us,” she wrote.

Natalia Veselova previously made statements about the Donbas blockade having negative consequences for Ukraine:

“...The negative consequences have already been talked about more than once - that the Russian Federation avoided sanctions for reorienting enterprises and their work to its market in the territory that is temporarily uncontrolled, and for the fact that Ukrainians who live in the occupied territories , are susceptible to even greater influence of the aggressor country than before. There are a lot of consequences.

And there are even more negative consequences for Ukraine. Much has already been said about the fact that our metallurgical industry is suffering from the blockade, from the fact that economic ties with enterprises are being severed, from the fact that there is no supply of raw materials and coal,” Natalya Veselova said earlier.

It should be noted that before being elected as a deputy, Veselova was the director of the charitable foundation for assistance to the nationalist battalion “Donbass”.

It is interesting that Kiev nationalist activist Andrei Dzyndzya, who reposted the people’s deputy’s message, ironically noted in a comment that “Self-Help” turned out to be “Self-Help”.
