“Fokin’s dismissal is a holiday. In western Ukraine, good contrivers drink moonshine” – People’s Deputy Bakunets on Rada, depression, and love of food

Only parliamentary journalists, experts, and voters of its majority deputies know about the Dovira group in the Verkhovna Rada. The group often helps parliament and the Servant of the People part pass laws. 

One of the vivid members of this force is Yavorov's ex-mayor, and now a member of the environmental committee Pavlo Bakunets. Like Dovira, he is unfamiliar to the general Ukrainian public, but almost everyone in the Lviv region knows him. Bakunets has been in politics since he was 24 years old.

In an interview with Rubryka, Bakunets spoke candidly about both general political events, such as the open joy of the residents of Yavoriv region about Vitold Fokin's job termination, and the personal. Love of delicious food, alcohol, and an interesting life story. Pavlo Bakunets started his way from the church, then became a toastmaster, and now works in the parliament.
