European Solidarity to demand MP Bezuhla's withdrawal from national security committee
The European Solidarity faction in the Verkhovna Rada is ready to resort to radical methods, up to blocking the rostrum, to demand the withdrawal of independent Member of Parliament (MP) Maryana Bezuhla from the parliament's national security and defense committee, a co-chair of the faction, Iryna Gerashchenko, has said on Monday evening.
"The European Solidarity is ready to resort to radical methods, up to blocking the rostrum, with a demand to recall Maryana Bezuhla from the national security committee. We voiced this demand at the conciliatory [council of factions]," she said on the Telegram channel.
Also, the faction demands to correct the errors of the mobilization law on the inability to mobilize 18-25-year-olds of limited fitness and proposes to invite Defense Minister Rustem Umerov to an hour of questions to the government to clarify the issues of supplying the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) and the front.
As reported, the parliamentary committee on national security, defense and intelligence recommended to Parliament to recall Bezuhla from her position as deputy head of the committee and expel her from the committee.
On July 22, MPs registered in the Verkhovna Rada a draft resolution to recall Bezuhla from the post of deputy head and member of the national security committee. Among the authors of the bill are Oleksandr Zavitnevych (Servant of the People faction), Iryna Friz (European Solidarity faction), Roman Kostenko (Holos faction), but the first deputy head of the Committee on Regulations, Serhiy Yevtushok (Batkivschyna faction), said that MPs of the Servant of the People faction disrupted a meeting of the committee, which was to consider the issue of Bezuhla's removal from the national security committee.
Bezuhla has been Deputy Chair of the Committee since August 29, 2019. She left the Servant of the People faction on July 17, 2024.
