Snap parliamentary elections were held in Ukraine on 26 October 2014 to elect members of the Verkhovna Rada. President Petro Poroshenko had pressed for early parliamentary elections since his victory in the presidential elections in May.[1] The July breakup of the ruling coalition gave him the right to dissolve the parliament, so on 25 August 2014 he announced the early election.[2]

Voting did not take place in the Russian-occupied Autonomous Republic of Crimea and Sevastopol, nor in large parts of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts because of the ongoing war in Donbas.[3] Because of this, 27 of the 450 seats remained unfilled.

The elections were seen as a realignment. Ruling from 2010 to 2014, and taking one of the top two spots in elections since 2006, the Party of Regions did not participate in the 2014 elections, while its informal successor Opposition Bloc received only 9% of the vote. For the first time since Ukrainian independence, the Communist Party of Ukraine failed to win a seat. Four newly created parties received the highest vote shares; the Petro Poroshenko Bloc (formed in July 2014 by Poroshenko's supporters), People's Front (split from Fatherland in August 2014), Self Reliance (registered in 2012) and Opposition Bloc (formed in September 2014 by a group of the former Party of Regions members).

The work of the new parliament started on 27 November 2014.[4] On the same day, five factions formed the "European Ukraine" coalition: Petro Poroshenko Bloc, People's Front, Self Reliance, Radical Party and Fatherland.[5] On 2 December the second Yatsenyuk government was approved.[6]
