He said this to reporters, Censor.NET informs citing Ukrainski Novyny.

"Today, I tendered resignation from Poroshenko Bloc faction," he said.

According to him, the parliament formed a new "coalition" of People's Front, Poroshenko Bloc, Radical Party, as well as Vidrodzhennia and Volia Narodu deputy groups.
