Ukraine held a parliamentary election on Sunday, July 21. Nine parties won seats, under the proportional representation system. However, the new political party that supports President Volodymyr Zolensky won an absolute majority. This is the first time any party has won a majority since Ukraine became independent in 1991.
The new party is “Servant of the People”, the same name as the television show that made a star out of President Zelensky. He was an actor in that series and he played the president of Ukraine. Then, earlier this year, in the actual presidential election, Zelensky became a real-life candidate and became the actual president.
The Servant of the People Party did not have any nominees for Parliament who were incumbent members of the Parliament. The party is pro-European Union and has strong libertarian tendencies. Thanks to Thomas Jones for the link.

USA- still stuck in 1200s — minority rule gerrymander DARK AGE
What will this mean for the neofascism promoted by Svoboda et al?
Will the EU and NATO *leaders* have enough brain cells to STOP Putin and his gangsters from subverting the Ukraine regime even more ???
See Putin invaded/occupied tyranny areas — Crimea and eastern Ukraine parts.
See earlier Hitler invaded/occupied tyranny areas — Austria, Czechland – before Poland and WW II.
Svoboda was a 2 percent party so why even ask about them? Ukraine is on the side of freedom, Putin and his allies including trump, farage, le pen et al are fash.
