	Politics of Ukraine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Politics of Ukraine takes place in a framework of a semi-presidential representative democratic republic, whereby the Prime Minister of Ukraine is the head of government but shares a lot of these responsibilites with the President of Ukraine, and of a pluriform multi-party system.

		The Supreme Court of Ukraine ordered a repeat of the re-run to be held on December 26, 2004, and asked the law enforcement agencies to investigate cases of election fraud.

		Ukraine's chief prosecutor, meanwhile, cleared two of the president's aides of corruption, but said an investigation into abuse of power continued against one of Yushchenko's closest allies, Petro Poroshenko.
		Yekhanurov, a business-friendly economist who prefers an out-of-the-limelight approach, was seen as a sharp contrast from the charismatic and politically ambitious Tymoshenko, who alarmed investors with her interference in the marketplace and her large-scale re-privatization program.
		Ukraine has been embroiled in a political crisis since Yushchenko's former chief-of-staff, Oleksandr Zinchenko, suddenly quit Sept. 3 and later publicly accused Poroshenko and other top presidential aides of corruption.

		Ukraine's March 2006 parliamentary election campaign is underway with the orange camp divided and the political party leading in the polls, headed by ex-prime minister and former presidential candidate Viktor Yanukovych, positioned to become the country's political powerbroker.
		As part of the compromise to resolve the political upheaval after repeated vote fraud in the 2004 presidential election, then candidate Viktor Yushchenko agreed to political reforms -- to come into effect at the start of next year -- that will transform Ukraine from a presidential republic to parliamentary republic.
		This could be explained as political attitudes and belief in state institutions change slowly in every political culture, but the lack of significant economic and political successes since the Orange Revolution also appears to be in play.

		Crucially, the CPM is not contemplating the kind of root-and-branch political and economic change that Mr Yushchenko is proposing for Ukraine.
		So while Ukraine may well fall short in its EU aspirations, it is likely to go further than Moldova in pursuing an economic policy and creating a business environment that are suitable for an aspirant EU member.
		However, Moldova’s ill-developed political parties and fragile institutions would almost certainly limit the positive impact that might otherwise be expected – while leaving plenty of scope for the return to the sort of political instability of the 1990s.
