The People's Party (Template:Lang-ua; Narodna Partiya) is a political party in Ukraine. It was previously named as the Agrarian Party of Ukraine (Template:Lang-ua).[3] The party is led by Volodymyr Lytvyn.[3] In September 2011, he claimed that his party was only surpassed in membership by the Party of Regions and Bloc Yulia Tymoshenko.[4]

The party won 2 seats in the Ukrainian parliament in the 2012 Ukrainian parliamentary election.[5] The party did not take part in national elections since 2012.[6][7][8]

History

During the 1998 Ukrainian parliamentary election the party gained 3,68% of the popular vote,[3] the party won 2 (single-mandate constituency) seats.

At the parliamentary elections on 30 March 2002, the party was part of the For United Ukraine alliance.[3] At the parliamentary elections on 26 March 2006 the party was part of the electoral Lytvyn's People's Bloc, which won 2.44% of the popular vote and no seats.[3] In the parliamentary elections on 30 September 2007, the party was part of the Lytvyn Bloc alliance,[3] that won 20 out of 450 seats.

In November 2010 the Bloc of Lytvyn faction in the Verkhovna Rada (Ukraine's parliament) was renamed People's Party faction.[9]

In the 2010 local elections the party won representative in 20 of the 24 regional parliaments, it did not win seats in the Supreme Council of Crimea.[10]

In August 2011 party leader Lytvyn stated that his People's Party will merge with fellow Ukrainian party Party of Regions.[11] Earlier that month Strong Ukraine had announced the same move.[4][12] But Mid-December 2011 Lytvyn stated that People's Party will participate in the 2012 parliamentary elections independently.[13] In these election the party did not run on the nationwide proportional party-list but it did win 2 constituencies (it had competed in 58 constituencies[14]), one won by Lytvyn and the other one by Serhiy Hrynyvetsky,[15] and thus parliamentary representation.[16] Hrynyvetsky joined the faction of Party of Regions in December 2012, while Lytvyn did not join any faction.[17]

In the 2014 parliamentary election the party did not compete on the nationwide party list and also did not win a constituency seat and thus no parliamentary seats.[8][7] Lytvyn was re-elected into parliament as an independent candidate in electoral district 65.[18]

Again the party did not take part in the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election.[6] In this election Volodymyr Lytvyn lost his parliamentary seat after losing his constituency.[19]

In the 2020 Ukrainian local elections the party gained 13 deputies (0.03% of all available mandates).[20]
