On 14 April 2016, the Ukrainian parliament approved a new government led by Volodymyr Hroisman, as well as his programme (in a separate vote). In this way, nearly three months of the governmental crisis was brought to an end, and the prospect of early general elections was dismissed. But this did not mean the end of the political crisis, as nothing indicates that the parliament’s work would get any better, nor that the new government would enjoy stable parliamentary support. Thus early elections, in the spring or autumn of 2017, remained a real possibility. The new government was formed thanks to a confidential agreement between President Poroshenko and the oligarchs, and the support of the parliamentary parties under their control ensured a majority for the government. |
