New Politics (Ukrainian: Нова політика) is a political party in Ukraine registered in February 2001.[2] The party is led by former Party of Regions lawmaker and former Vice Premier Minister in the Azarov Government Volodymyr Semynozhenko.[1][2][3]

History[edit]

Until 2012, the party did not take part in national elections.[2] In March 2009 Semynozhenko was elected party leader of the party.[1] In the 2012 Ukrainian parliamentary election the party won 0.10% of the national votes and no constituencies (it had competed in 26 constituencies[4]) and thus failed to win parliamentary representation.[5]

In the 2014 Ukrainian parliamentary election members of the party took part in the elections on the party list of Opposition Bloc; Opposition Bloc won 29 seats.[6][7][8]

The party did not take part in the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election[9]

In the 2020 Ukrainian local elections the party gained 39 deputies (0.09% of all available mandates).[10]
