Head of Donetsk Military and Civil Administration Pavlo Zhebrivsky believes that the elections in Mariupol, Donetsk region, will be held either on Nov. 15 or in January of 2016.
“The elections in Mariupol will take place either on Nov. 15 together with the second round of mayoral elections, or within ten days the Central Election Commission will pass a decision to recognize the elections in Mariupol as invalid. Then the Verkhovna Rada will have 60 days to announce new elections, already in January,” Zhebrivsky told journalists at a briefing in Mariupol on Oct. 26.
