The YABLOKO party is against appointment of Mikhail Zurabov as Russia’s Ambassador in Ukraine. Such a statement was made by YABLOKO’s leader Sergei Mitorkhin.
“In the situation of escalation of conflict with Ukraine, [the government] proposes to appoint as Ambassador an extremely unpopular ex-official, who symbolizes the merger of business and government and replacement of policies with commerce. There is not doubt that such an appointment may only aggravate the problems,” said Mitrokhin.
