People's Deputy Oleksii Honcharenko was ruled out of order in the PACE for three months.

The people's deputy from the "European Solidarity" party Oleksii Honcharenko informed about it on Telegrams, Rubryka reports.

To recap, PACE President Hendrik Daems stopped the speech of People's Deputy Oleksii Honcharenko and threatened disciplinary sanctions because the People's Deputy showed the shot flag of Ukraine from the front in Donbas.

"I see this as double standards. Because yesterday Armenian colleagues spoke, showed photos of killed soldiers, Russian delegates come in under a double-headed eagle, and no one makes any remarks to them, no one interrupts, all is well. I showed the national flag of my country, it isn't a poster, not something else," the people's deputy commented on the scandal.
