Mukhin: PACE, depriving the RF powers, struck his reputation
The parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, depriving the Russian delegation's voting rights, struck only by his reputation and political influence, managing Director of the Center for political information Alexei Mukhin.
on Wednesday, the PACE was deprived of the delegation of the Russian Federation the right to vote until April, thereby extending introduced last April penalties because of the situation in Ukraine. According to the head of the Russian delegation to PACE Alexei Pushkov, Russia leaves the Assembly before the end of the year.
According to Mukhin, depriving Russia of powers was "expected" and the Russian delegation was ready For this development. Moreover, since the RF was stripped of some powers in April 2014, this position is Nothing new.
" The situation of the staff. The delegation of Russia, going to a meeting of the PACE, expected such a scenario event. Nothing wrong, of course, does not occur. Here the PACE is rather a hit on their reputation, their own political influence than once punished the Russian Federation. Russia was already in a frozen state participation in this organization, and for us Nothing has changed, " said he.
in explaining the decision of the Russian delegation to leave the PACE until the end of 2015, Mukhin said that " it is quite expected reaction ".
"Good to have and the fee to take, because the year has only just begun, As reported", he added.
in decision PACE offers monitoring Board to consider establishing, in case of agreement with the interest of the parliaments, the ad hoc working group with the participation of speakers of the Russian state Duma and the Ukrainian Rada or authorized to develop possible measures PACE to support the execution of Minsk Protocol on the settlement of the situation in the East of Ukraine, where the Kiev authorities in April 2014 launched a military operation against dissatisfied with the February coup d'etat residents.
This call For mutual work against the decision to deprive the Russian delegates some of its responsibilities Mukhin called " ritual ".
" Unfortunately, we can conclude that the ritual, incantation part is completely possessed by the members of the Assembly. Any constructive suggestions Russia PACE does not make, otdelilas minor, abstract accusations and appeals, which testifies to the fact that PACE is under the strong influence of the USA and repeats word by word all the charges to which he periodically Washington in Russia, " said Mukhin.
" This position is unfortunate and shows only about one thing - the lack of independence of the organization. If she cant, then what is the sense of the presence of Russia?" - he added.
