Take a look inside the snap parliamentary elections that will be held Sunday in Ukraine
To Tanasov, running as a member of former President Petro Poroshenko’s European Solidarity party, the answer lies with the European Union and the United States. “We need all the political help from the West we can get,” he said. “We need tougher sanctions against Russia.”Zelensky, the new president, has taken a different approach, saying he would stop the war by fulfilling two peace deals with Russia known as.
“We are ready to follow the provisions of all Minsk accords to achieve peace at last,” Zelensky said in remarks to the German news agency Deutsche Welle earlier this month. Zelensky spoke with Putin by phone on July 5, but details of the conversation have not been disclosed. Zelensky has also called for a nationwide referendum on the status of Donbass, the disputed region that is still partly held by separatists. He will need support from parliament to accomplish that, as well as his proposal for a law banishing Poroshenko and other high officials associated with the former president from occupying top positions in the future.
According to recent polls, Zelensky’s Servant of the People party is leading the field of 22 parties with support from more than 45% of potential voters. That is not enough to claim a constitutional majority of 226 deputies, in part because only half the parliament is elected on party slates; the other half consists of unaligned candidates.The pro-Russia Platform for Life party is polling at about 12%, followed by Poroshenko’s party and the party of former prime minister Yulia Timoshenko.
