After the official publication of the law on the prohibition of the activities of pro-Russian political parties, the Ministry of Justice filed a corresponding lawsuit with the Eighth Administrative Court of Appeal, located in Lviv, said the Minister of Justice of Ukraine Denis Malyuska on the air of Radio NV.

The Minister emphasized that the lawsuit concerns not only the Opposition Platform for Life, but also other parties mentioned in the decision of the National Security and Defense Council.

“The necessary evidence base has been collected. It is the most complete on the activities of the Opposition Platform for Life, because this party most actively occupied a pro-Russian position and communicated it,” said Malyuska.

He expects that the first court decisions to ban the activities of pro-Russian parties are expected in the summer: the court must consider the case in the first instance within a month. If there is an appeal, it will be considered for a maximum of a month.

At the same time, even before the court decision, the political parties against which the lawsuit is filed will not be able to carry out their political activities.. Any decisions of these parties will have no legal value.. Also part of the process of suspending the process of activities of political parties is the dissolution of the OPPL faction in the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine.

And this is just one of the ways to hold pro-Russian politicians accountable.”.
