A trip to Antarctica, the deputy head of the Duma Committee on Housing, Alexander Sidyakina and members of the industry committee Oleg Savchenko received wide resonance in the society. On the journey deputies became known after January 14 with them was lost connection.
Soon the organizers of the trip have been able to reach them. Assistant Sidyakina reported that the plane with deputies can not fly to Moscow because of the bad weather conditions.
However, most of the media is not the absence of deputies angered at the workplace, and the estimated cost of the trip – it could make seven million rubles – 3.5 each. Where did the people’s representatives the money?
“Who understands the issue, he understands that to get right up to the highest mountain in Antarctica must be eight months before the climb. It’s all about the money the other, an order of magnitude smaller than written in the media, then there was another course. The price of tickets, if you buy them in advance, it is quite affordable. We trip cost a little more than 600 thousand rubles each, “- said Savchenko RIA Novosti by satellite phone from Antarctica.
In addition, the MP said that he and his colleague favor of Russian power, domestic tents and sleeping bags, which brought with them, allowing them to save.
It was reported earlier that the parliamentarians went on an expedition to the continent without permission Gosgidrometa than violated adopted in 2012 a law for which they themselves and voted. “The first accusation that we have violated the law of Antarctica – it’s a lie. We will investigate the deputies, who could blame us. Any expert, lawyer, read the law, understand that it is forbidden to engage in commercial activities. But there are many Russian citizens, tourists, who come as part of a cruise tour. No they never forbade. So someone brought the whole country astray, “- said Savchenko.
Some media also wrote that the deputies, going to Antarctica, violated the procedure for admission state secrets. “The charge related to a state secret, I think it is absolutely absurd,” – said the MP.
On the question of whether lawmakers fear not clarify the circumstances of their trip to the State Duma, Savchenko said no. “In my opinion, we have nothing to fear, because we have not violated any law of the Russian Federation. If there are more orders, we will gladly ready to move on: to conquer the summit, oceans, deserts. I believe that this should be the deputy, not only in words, but in deeds to prove that he is a leader, he’s ready to responsible behavior, “- said Savchenko.
In addition, the assistant Emma Salimova Savchenko explained RIA Novosti why working time deputies are not in the State Duma, and the South Pole. According to her, even before the trip contingency Sidyakin Savchenko and written statements to the Chairman of the State Duma Sergei Naryshkin to missed work days were counted them against future release.
