After Yabloko’s release of the video about the Tula Regional Duma spending budget money on expensive cars, regional MPs decided to allocate money to buying ambulances
Press Release, 23.04.2020
The Tula Regional Duma refuses large purchases of expensive cars for the regional parliaments and allocates these 5 million roubles for the purchase of ambulances. Vladimir Dorokhov, Chairman of the Tula Yabloko, noted that this happened exactly 24 hours after Yabloko’s publication of the video about the purchase by the Tula Regional Duma of two expensive cars of the executive class.
“Thanks to your reposts, the video was watched by about 2,000 people, and this was enough for the result. I always thought: not only the fact of an error is important, but the reaction to this error is no less important. In this case, the Duma could have been adamant about the purchase of cars and insist on it, but they made the only right decision – they cancelled this purchase. Congratulations to them! ” the leader of the regional branch of the party noted.
“By our joint efforts, we returned 5 million roubles in one day. This is good for the first time, but not enough. The next bar is to return 23 million roubles,” Dorokhov added.
