Kharkiv residents will receive a new mayor no earlier than autumn 2021 - expert
After the death of Gennady Kernes, they will try to delay the election of the mayor of Kharkov for as long as possible, which is beneficial for almost all local players, except for the “servants of the people”, who, however, in any case, have nothing special to oppose.
Ukrainian political strategist Alexander Teplyuk stated this during a press conference in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“As for re-elections, they definitely won’t happen in the near future. Because today there is a redistribution of zones of influence there, and the person who holds the position of secretary is Terekhov, he is quite happy with all the labor forces represented there today.
Plus, if re-elections are held today, and they can only happen with the tacit consent of the Servant of the People, they have no one to represent there, and there is no person who could be nominated and who could compete even with the same Terekhov.
Plus, we understand that today the zone of influence there is being “squeezed out”, that is, the current Minister of Internal Affairs Avakov is trying to control it, and as far as I know and understand, he is also currently having negotiations there with the current secretary and others, and he he’s also, first of all, satisfied,” said Teplyuk,
“Therefore, regarding quick elections, I think this will not happen in the near future, and if it does happen, it will not be earlier than the fall of next year. Previously, I would not have counted on this,” the expert summed up the forecast.
