Lets give you a bit of history...

Volja, zlagoda, dobro -
Current PP: szeku (our current MoD)
Actually this was the first party created in Ukraine after the map wipe (see below). Its always been run be Hungarians - well until now.

United Ukraine -
Current PP: Viira (me)
UU was created almost 3 months by Irov and I during a time when Ukraine was run by Hungarians and had just come back into existence after some poor Hungarian military judgment that got it wiped off the map. Because the country had been destroyed all political parties were erased. So at first there were no parties and then Volja, zlagoda, dobro was created. Seeing that it was going to be another Hungarian party we created UU shortly after. Hoping to give Ukrainians a place in government. And finally, thanks to many people, its done.

Orange Revolution Party -
Current PP: Alexis M. Pasichny (former UU member)
Originally created by Romanians shortly after UU it was called "Social Democratic Party". Then it was taken over by Hungarians and renamed to some thing like "Ukrainian International Party". Later it fell back to Romanians but soon was taken by Alexis M. Pasichny.

Motherland Defenders Party -
Current PP: Ceriy (former MoD and UU member)
maybe a month ago this party was created under the name "Peace and Love Party" by a Ukrainian player Ukrajinec (now banned) shortly after his ban it was taken over by Romanians. Eventually Hungarians got a hold of it, and now that they left - Ceriy has taken it.

HabraHabr Ukr Party -
Former PP: eeexception
I never understood the purpose, other then being a sister party to the Russian version
"The party with the id 2536 was suspended because the president resigned and there was no other party member with more than 125 EP."

So, what is the point to all this? Well parties can come and go in a heart beat, some manage to stay alive only because of strong citizen support.

At this time, all of the current parties are under Ukrainian control. I can't explain to you how amazing this feels! For me after months of fighting for a free Ukraine it has finally happened! But for others, they have waited for this moment since eRep brought Ukraine into the game (I wasn't here for that, so I'm not sure when this was exactly, probably a year ago)

I have to say, in this moment Ukraine is United because it finally has citizens. It finally has some control. It has a congress majority, it has a Ukrainian president.

I ask the leaders of these parties to be wise. We don't have a "foreign" influence inside the government to blame as the "bad guys" anymore. We only have ourselves. We are responsible for our own actions. And we have to answer to our own people.
