Vadym Novynskyi’s Comments on the Prosecutor General’s Request to Lift His Parliamentary Immunity
So far, I have not received any request from the Administrative Office of the Verkhovna Rada to lift my parliamentary immunity. Neither has the Prosecutor General’s office raised any charges against me since October 31, the date on which I received a formal response from this authority.
So, what is the Prosecutor General’s Office trying to accuse me of? According to Lutsenko, it is my so-called involvement in putting “illegal pressure on the Ukrainian Orthodox Church to remove the now-deceased Metropolitan Volodymyr from his post.” The Church knows my attitude towards His Beatitude who had been undergoing medical treatment, which I supported. Only the unscrupulous would have the heart to say that I wished him ill.
