“To put before the fact is not quite correct”

Alex Chlomo should have been discussed with the city authorities the question of his resignation before making the final decision, said Senator Andrey Sobolev, representing in Council of Federation Executive power of Sevastopol.

“Such things in a city like this figure ought to speak with those with whom he shares responsibility and authority,” – said the Senator. “Don’t just inform, but to think that would follow. To put before the fact is not quite correct”, – said Sobolev. “I would like greater transparency and preparedness in this decision, the Legislature is a serious organ that must be consolidated with the government,” he added.

This Senator is not inclined to link the resignation of the sea with its complex relations with the Governor of Sevastopol Sergey meniailo. “Relations were strained for a long time, but not because of this relationship of person writing letter of resignation”, – Sobolev noted, stressing that expresses a personal opinion and can’t give a more in-depth assessment of what is happening, as have not had time to understand all the details. “A person may be a thousand reasons both personal and public character,” added the MP.

In the opinion of the Fire, the resignation of the sea could strengthen its position in the eyes of public opinion, allowing him to build a political public image, stressing “one of the key properties for public policy – loyalty to one’s word, honesty to the voters”. “Chaly said repeatedly that if the conflict between the legislature and the Executive in Sevastopol will not be resolved, then both parties would do well to resign”, – said the expert.

“I think that this will have a negative impact on the rating of the mayor. I Menyailo, according to previous sociological research, and so there was quite a high rating, in Sevastopol there was great dissatisfaction with city power”, – said the representative of ISAPI.

In his opinion, saying now about retirement, Chaly “played in advance” and “holds the political initiative”. “In such circumstances the Governor need any clear, public steps to build relationships with the Legislature, including, Chaly and his supporters”, – said the analyst. Another option for Menyailo, said the Fire, – “to present convincing evidence that it is because of the position of the legislative Assembly, the Executive power of Sevastopol are unable to fulfil the promises that existed.”

“The next step”

The head of the Fund of civil society development (Fcsd) Konstantin Kostin believes that I now need to wait for some steps from the Governor of Sevastopol. “Much will depend on which from this point of conflict will be the next step. The head of the city should offer a program to its supporters and those who support Chaly, worked together,” he said.

While Kostin stressed that any confrontation between the legislature and the Executive has negative consequences for social well-being of the population.

Commenting on the rating results, Kostin said earlier that “in Sevastopol, of course, need to address the issue of interaction between the Executive and the legislature”. “If there is no built workable, acceptable to all groups of elites the configuration, we may encounter some problems that will lead to negative dynamics in the rating”, – said the analyst.
