Pushkov said that Poroshenko appeal to the Constitutional Court argues coup in Ukraine – BBC

The situation with the appeal of the President of Petro Poroshenko to the Constitutional Court of Ukraine on the Law of the deprivation status of the President Yanukovych confirms coup in Ukraine, reports TASS .

This was stated by Chairman of the Committee State Duma Foreign Affairs Alexei Pushkov.

«While Poroshenko raised the question of unconstitutionality of the Act of February 4, 2015 on the withdrawal of the title of President of Ukraine Yanukovich, in fact this appeal proves the illegality of the removal of Yanukovych from power at the end of February 2014 and proves the coup “, – said the parliamentarian.

According to him, the appeal Poroshenko exactly states that the President of Ukraine may be removed in only one way – as a result of impeachment.

Previous Pushkov said, President of Ukraine declared unconstitutional cancellation of President Yanukovych in defiance of the EU and PACE.
