Grigory Yavlinsky: I will not take part in the inauguration of Grigory Poltavchenko
Grigory Yavlinsky: I will not take part in the inauguration of Grigory Poltavchenko as St.Petersburg Governor tomorrow. Gubernatorial elections in St.Petersburg were conducted with numerous violations, politicians who had much support in St.Petersburg – such as Oksna Dmitiyeva – were not allowed to run, and a questionable mass-scale voting by absentee ballots was held. Mass-scale fraud was reported by observers and mass media at St.Petersburg municipal elections. Therefore, Grigory Poltavchenko has been and still is an appointed Governor rather than an elected one.
