This was reported in the regional branch of the party.

“The behavior of Vladimir Vasilievich is not only contrary to the party charter, but also universal human standards, for which he suffered a well-deserved punishment,” the press service quotes the head of the regional legislative assembly, Valery Lidin.

United Russia noted that the actions of the parliamentarian discredit the party and deputies of the local parliament.

Earlier, the executive secretary of the EP ethics commission Yevgeny Revenko in his Instagram announced the detention of Vdonin for drunk driving. He called for the expulsion of the deputy from the party.

At the end of May, an official from Khakassia was expelled from United Russia after an attack on a journalist on the Russia 24 television channel.
