In the Middle Urals, another candidate for governors. On Monday, July 3, the Russian Public Union at a party conference held in Moscow, decided to nominate a high-ranking lawyer, Ivan Volkov. This was reported by ex-deputy Sverdlovsk Legislative Assembly Yevgeny Artyukh.
"As a local resident, not a" Varangian "from Tyumen, I believe that I have the full moral right to put forward my candidacy for the election of the governor of the Sverdlovsk region! Having behind him 5 election campaigns, from 2004 to 2017, from the city duma, the legislative assembly and the State Duma, being the father of three sons with many children, practicing law and public activity for 17 years, often traveling to small towns in the Sverdlovsk region, and , Knowing the real situation there on the ground, seeing the ever growing discontent of the people as regional and federal authorities, I consider it absolutely necessary for me to continue to move into power - to change the "stuck up cadres" and meet the people Y, and not from him, as I suppose - this (the movement of the people) makes the current government!

Let's remind, wide popularity of Volkov has received after conflict with a management of car-care center AutoMASTER. In July 2016, he turned in his wife's car, but he refused to return the car, demanding payment for work inconsistent with the client. After Volkov invited the crew of the television channel Ermak to the service, the owners of the enterprise - Boris and Konstantin Lushchikov - attacked intruders, beat him, took the camera away from the cameraman and damaged her.
