A Russian woman with a pro-Putin position got a job in the Italian Senate. We are talking about Irina Osipova, who openly supports the war against our state.

According to available data, she should soon take the position of “parliamentary assistant.” Among her areas of responsibility aredatabases, classification and archiving of correspondence in the upper house of parliament

The Russian woman won the competition

As noted by Italian media, she will also perform administrative and accounting functions. In particular, we are talking about database consulting. The media notes that Osipovawill have access to “accounting data and dossiers on all important issues.”

The head of the Senate commission, Paola Binetti, responded to this. According to her, Osipova received her new post solely through her personal abilities. She added that the competition was announced in 2019 and completed in 2022. It is known that the Russian woman was not asked about her political views during the exams.True, the exam procedure does not provide for this.

According to Binetti, asking about political views “would be an unfair interference that would create obvious unfair discrimination.” Therefore, journalists asked her about the possibility of getting a job in the Senate for people who support the war in Ukraine. The head of the examination committee assured that“a public official will not be allowed to spread propaganda.”
