Commenting on the active participation of the opposition in the special session, the deputy noted that they had firm position to vote for introduction of emergency situation and to support the amendments concerning financing of regions suffered from the flood. Those deputies who were not away too far came to the session.

Speaking about the compensation for the interrupted vacation the deputy said he did not count on it, as a deputy must think about importance of a  question, not abut his pocket.

"As far as I know, Yatsenyuk said there would be no compensations. The deputies got their vacation pay, and if a deputy has got his vacation pay and is working during the vacation, nobody pays him extra. It is a standard practice," he added.

Plotnikov forecast "hot" political autumn. "I think that the presidential campaign will start in September. The closer is the election the worse are confrontations and problems in the parliament," the deputy opined.
