The Ukrainian political sphere has suffered a serious loss: Vyacheslav Belsky, a People's Deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of the II convocation, has died. The death of the politician was announced in an official statement from the parliament, which was confirmed by RBK-Ukraine.
Contribution to the formation of the state
The Verkhovna Rada emphasized Belsky's exceptional role in the history of modern Ukraine. The deputy was not just an observer of events but an active participant in the formation of statehood. In particular, it was Vyacheslav Belsky who voted for the adoption of the Constitution of Ukraine, thereby establishing the fundamental foundations of the country's legal field.
The parliament noted that his work made a significant contribution to the establishment of an independent state. Belsky worked in the Committee on Agro-Industrial Complex, Land Resources, and Social Development of the Village, dealing with key issues for the economy and the social sphere.
Condolences to colleagues
The leadership of the Verkhovna Rada expressed deep sympathy to the relatives and loved ones of the deceased. Official condolences were sent to friends, colleagues, and all who knew and respected Vyacheslav Belsky.
A difficult period for the Ukrainian parliament
The death of Belsky is another tragic event in a series of losses that have befallen the Ukrainian political community recently. In January 2026, People's Deputy Alexander Kabanov, representing the "Servant of the People" faction, passed away at the age of 53. And in May of this year, former head of the National Bank Stepan Kubiv, who was also a People's Deputy of several convocations, died.
