Mark Tkachuk: Misin said he goes to oculist, but went to Parliament

When Vadim Misin announced that he decided to defect from the Communist Party, he told his party colleagues that he goes to the oculist, but went to Parliament to make public his defection, Communist MP Mark Tkachuk said in the program “In Profunzime” on Pro TV channel, Info-Prim Neo reports. “In the morning, we had the meeting of the party’s executive committee. Vadim Misin phoned and said that he cannot come because he goes to the oculist. When the meeting was over, I found out that he was in the Parliament’s assembly hall,” said Mark Tkachuk. He also said that there were earlier rumors about Vadim Misin’s intention to leave the party and he even thought to meet Misin to discuss with him, but did not want to make him angry. “I’m 45 and hoped that I will have many things to learn from him yet. But the person called Misin Vadim Nicolaevich disappeared at a certain moment as that Misin who came to us on June 7 is different from the first,” stated Tkachuk. He considers that the three lawmakers who left the PCRM will take up posts in a pseudo-, left-wing party that for three more years will entertain the people with subjects centering on the strengthening of the left forces and will work against the PCRM. “Today they are allies of the ruling alliance and opponents of the Communist Party,” said the Communist MP. At the start of the June 7 sitting of Parliament, Vadim Misin said that he, Oleg Babenko and Tatiana Botnariuc decided to leave the Communist group. Afterward, the PCRM announced that the three MPs were excluded from the party.
