The winner of the election is the ruling party 'Regions', headed by current President Viktor Yanukovych, who gained about 30 percent of the vote. The block of opposition parties, led by Yanukovich's great rival, former prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko, who is serving a prison sentence for corruption, won by 24 percent.

President Yanukovych will make every effort to ensure that anti-Semitic 'Svoboda' will not be part of the coalition he will form.
