“The United Russia party is heavily funded from the federal budget and is completely able to pay for its expenses. Moreover, the party has support of many businessmen whose total yearly profit exceeds dozens millions of rubles,” says the statement published on the official website of the regional CPRF branch.

“The Penza Communists stand against using the city treasury to provide for any means of the ruling party or any other party. We intend to address the prosecutor’s office with an official request to cancel the tender and bring to law those who wanted to spend budget money illegally,” says the message.
