The ECO event was originally planned for 16:00, but without warning, it was held during a question-and-answer hour with the mayor.
As a result, the journalists were left with nothing: Menyailo’s comments were not received either about the accident of his motorcade over the weekend, or about important events in city life, such as the upcoming United Russia rally.
The question to Menyailo about the rally hung in the air - acting. The governor left the room mid-sentence, answering a phone call, and the question went to his deputy for internal policy, Evgeniy Dubovik.
He said that the Sevastopol branch of the United Russia party had announced the participation of 12 thousand people at the rally on September 10 on Nakhimov Square, and the rally itself would be pre-election in nature.
Let us remind you that the meeting was coordinated on the second attempt, after the time of the honey festival on the square was shifted. However, the political council of the United Russia party managed to announce an attempt by the government of Sevastopol to disrupt the rally of “Chaly’s team” in support of its candidate in the elections to the legislative assembly.
Previously, the “team”’s attempt to hold a rally on August 23 in honor of the half-year anniversary of the events of the “Russian Spring” “failed.” Instead of a rally, a concert of creative groups was held for Russian Flag Day. Chaly's supporters perceived this decision as a fact of conflict between Menyailo and Chaly.
Let us remind you that about 23 thousand citizens gathered at the historic rally on February 30. Then, on the square, Chaly was elected “people’s mayor” of Sevastopol.
