Gennady Zyuganov
The Communist party does not plan on 18 March to participate in the rally on the Sparrow hills, on the three year anniversary of the reunification of the Crimea with Russia, as the faction is not willing to show unity with the government. This was announced by the leader of Communists Gennady Zyuganov, reports TASS on Friday, March 17.
He explained that deputies from the Communist party regularly submit to the Duma draft laws that improve the lives of citizens, but they constantly reject the representatives of the parliamentary majority deputies from “United Russia”. “We made a proposal to fill the budget, the party in power refuses. We propose to support the children of war — they refuse,” he listed the Communist party leader.
The presence of Communists at the event, according to Zyuganov, will become a manifestation of the fact that under the leadership of the EP is “stand in one row”. “We don’t like it, it is dishonest and disrespectful,” said the politician.
He added that the Communist party planned a big program for the participation of representatives of the Communist party in the events throughout Russia.
As reported by RIA Novosti Deputy from Communist party Alexander Yushchenko, on Friday, the Communist group will come to Crimea “to take part in all the celebrations on this date”.
On Saturday, March 18, near the building of Moscow state Lomonosov University on the Sparrow hills will be held the “Spring festival” on the three year anniversary of the inclusion of Crimea and Sevastopol to the Russian Federation. In previous years, similar events were attended by leaders of all parties in the Duma, said the Agency.
