Former Odessa Mayor Gennadiy Trukhanov may initiate proceedings to strip four representatives of the “Trust the Deeds” party of their legislative seats. These are members of the Odessa City Council and the Odessa Regional Council.
This was reported by Odesa journalist Iryna Hryb, citing sources within the party.
According to her, the “Trust the Deeds” party plans to hold a political council meeting on August 13–14. One of the main issues will allegedly be the application of the imperative mandate procedure against Oleg Bryndak, Marina Lozovenko, Vasyl Ieremiya, and Odessa Regional Council member Svitlana Fabrikant.
The journalist claims that the party leadership is pushing for the political council to take place but is allegedly not conducting direct negotiations with the deputies.
Fabrikant confirmed the information regarding her mandate
Svitlana Fabrikant, a member of the Odesa Regional Council representing the “Trust the Deeds” party, confirmed to Intent that the information regarding her legislative mandate is accurate.
At the same time, she noted that she has no information regarding Vitaliy Barvinenko’s involvement in this process.
Barvinenko himself told Intento that he has not been involved with the party or legislative matters for a long time.
“I haven’t been involved with either ‘Trust the Deeds’ or council affairs for a long time. Since December 2025, I’ve been on my own path,” he said.
Trukhanov’s office neither confirmed nor denied the information
Intent also reached out to Hennadiy Trukhanov’s press office for comment.
They neither confirmed nor denied the information regarding the possible revocation of the deputies’ mandates.
“I have no information on this matter,” replied Gennady Trukhanov’s press secretary.
Thus, at this time, there is no official confirmation from the party leadership regarding the upcoming meeting of the political council or the possible application of the imperative mandate to the four deputies.
