The State Duma speaker Sergei Naryshkin said that he believes in the optimistic scenario of development of provisions in the parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) and did Not see the expediency of continuing the work of delegation in PACE with other developments.
Examines the optimistic version of the activity PACE, and I believe in common sense parliamentarians, European parliamentarians, who work at the site of the parliamentary Assembly, authoritative and necessary parliamentary authority. If will prevail a different opinion, that for me, I doubt the feasibility, at least over the next year, in continuation of our work on the site of the parliamentary Assembly, "said Naryshkin, RIA" Novosti ". First it was claimed that the deputies from the Netherlands has prepared a resolution, which provides the option of full or partial limits the rights of Russia in the parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. Remember that Russian MPs have lost some of their powers (the right to speak and vote at meetings of the Assembly, to participate in the work of the governing bodies, and equally of observers at the elections in April 2014, when under pressure from the UK and the USA MEPs wanted to get from Russia to abandon the Crimea, and Not to help people in the South-East of Ukraine. In protest, the delegation of Russia prematurely left the session of the PACE, hinting at the limit of payment for the organization every year Russia shall transfer to the Council of Europe more than 22 million euros. Willingness to participate in the session said Naryshkin, who will be in Strasbourg, the first two days of its work. It is known that the MP is planning to speak at the "round table" devoted to the role of parliamentary institutions in restoring confidence in the European Union. It is possible that during this period of time the PACE will be solved and the further fate of the entire Russian delegation.
