Despite the fact that the West is showered with praise " Pro-European " the results of the parliamentary elections in Ukraine, the situation remains unchanged, the country remains deeply divided and is experiencing serious problems, writes printed illustrated edition.

The results of the elections and almost an equal number of votes " Block Poroshenko " and " Popular front " Arseniy Yatsenyuk - 21, 82%, and 22, and 22%, respectively - show that in the political arena is still two centers of power. Now they will be obliged to form a coalition, perhaps with the involvement of the Party " unity of " self-Help " Lviv mayor Andriy Sadovy, scored eleven, 13% of the vote, resembles a log.

Party Opposition bloc ", a list of which are former members of the Party of regions, was fourth at the last election and is expected to take in the Verkhovna Rada 60-70 seats. This case suggests the possibility of bringing in the the rage of people who are newcomers in politics and came to her with the Maidan, as well as the commanders of the volunteer battalions, who also got into the Parliament, emphasizes the Economist. It is clear that the " Block Poroshenko " and " Popular front " no desire to form a coalition with Opposition bloc ", But to do so must, otherwise it will only increase the sense of alienation and isolation among residents of Eastern Ukraine, the magazine writes.

But no less pernicious problem may be fierce competition within the coalition. The parties are the same Pro-European goals, However, business interests and personal ambitions - no. Had begun a political agreement and dissension on the question of reform, and Petro Poroshenko and Arseniy Yatsenyuk put forward their own proposals, However, the struggle between the President and Prime Minister have become a plague for Ukrainian politics since the " orange revolution ", specifies the Economist.

along with this, at stake is the survival not only of the new Parliament, but also in Ukraine as a whole, emphasizes the log. The economy could collapse at any moment, and Kiev can not do without international financial assistance. Anyway, its provision is required to be accompanied by reforms, from which ordinary citizens have the opportunity to suffer even more, writes the Economist.
