Party of Shariy (Ukrainian: Партiя Шарiя, Russian: Партия Шария, PSh), political party in Ukraine founded by political blogger Anatoly Shariy. The goal of the "Party of Shariy" is to establish the principles of democracy, create a middle class and to express its political will. They are led by the ideology of libertarianism.[1]

History[]

In the beginning of June 2019, Anatoly Shariy - a Ukrainian blogger famous for his criticism of the Ukrainian media and government - recorded a video in which he announced the establishment of his own political party.[15][16] Soon he published a video splash screen on his pages in social networks, in which he throws a red balloon towards the audience. Shariy did not explain what this means, but on his website there was a message that it was a hint of creating a party. Later on, the red balloon became a symbol of the party and its pre-election campaign.[17][18]

On June 6, 2019, this political party was officially registered in Ukraine.[19][20] The party took part in the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election. The namesake leader of the party, Shariy, as the candidate for the parliamentary election himself was denied registration by the Central Election Commission of Ukraine on the grounds that he did not meet the requirement of a term of five-year residence in the country immediately preceding the elections.

Previously, Shariy was known primarily for his investigations on corruption in the police and other law enforcement agencies during the Yanukovych government and, subsequently, sought asylum in the European Union in 2012 due to libel, defamation, and alleged politically motivated persecution by Ukrainian law enforcement bodies of the time.[21][22][23] However, the party was officially registered by the Central Election Commission of Ukraine and entered into the election ballot under number 17, immediately following the Radical Party and preceding political party Holos on the list.[24] On July 2, 2019, Anatoly Shariy was registered as a candidate for parliamentary election 2019 by the Central Election Commission of Ukraine. On the next day, July 3, 2019, the decision was reverted.[25]

2019 parliamentary election performance[]

In the 2019 parliamentary election the party gained 327,152 votes (2.23% of total, position #10).[26] Falling under the 5% threshold, it won no parliamentary seats. The party also failed to win a constituency seat.[27]

Winning more than the threshold of 2%, it was originally subject to funding from the budget for its support. However, on 2 October 2019, the Verkhovna Rada adopted the draft law No. 1029, which deprived parties of state funding that had won less than 5 per cent of the vote. After the adoption of this law, Party of Shariy lost about 441,511 thousand euros of state funding.[28]

On July 21, 2019 the party got 2.23% (almost 330 thousand voters) and failed to pass the threshold of 5%.[29] The highest result it achieved in the east and south of Ukraine (5.55% in Donetsk and 4.72% in Odessa regions).

The political party of blogger Anatoly Shariy, was included in the top five political forces, which won the leadership in the extraordinary parliamentary elections in 2019 in Ukraine's foreign constituency.[30] "The Party of Shariy" took fourth place in the electoral district abroad with 4.72% of the voters.[31]

After the elections in 2019[]

On 4 July 2019, Anatoly Shariy said in his video that his party was going into opposition to the pro-presidential party " Servant of the People" because Volodymyr Zelensky failed to meet expectations

Regional elections 2020 in Ukraine[]

Anatoly Shariy's party will take part in the local elections. He said this in a video on his Youtube channel.[1]

Together with the Opposition Bloc, the Party of Shariy was considered a competitor to the pro-Russian Opposition Platform — For Life.[32] However, the leader of the Opposition Platform — For Life Viktor Medvedchuk does not view the Party of Shariy as a competitor. On his Twitter account Medvedchuk wrote: "Rather, they are our allies. We can assume that our regiment has arrived - there are still political forces ready to fight lawlessness, lawlessness, external control, anti-Russian hysteria and cave-like Russophobia".[33][34]

Political positions and goals of the party[]

The main ideology of the party is libertarianism[1] The party aims to reduce the powers of the executive to the required minimum.[1]

Generally, the party stands on a number of fundamental principles shared by its members, such as:

  1. Аbsolute priority of personal dignity and human rights in Ukraine.
  2. Freedom of speech and conscience, yet the accountability of the press and public figures for libel and defamation.
  3. Direct democracy: electronic voting and cooperative decision-making.[2][3][4][5]
  4. Euro-optimism and Euro-integration.
  5. Modernization of Ukrainian society, its politics, science and technology.
  6. Economic liberalism, yet continued support to the socially neglected strata of population.

Also, on the party's program said that:

  1. They are in favour of the pro-European vector of Ukraine's development.
  2. They are in favour of differentiated budget and insurance medicine
  3. Observance of the law, inevitability of punishment, effective functioning, guarantee of the independence of the judicial branch are their priority.
  4. They also oppose nuclear weapons and nuclear capability.
  5. "The Party of Shariy" allows for the presence of several citizenship,

Scandals[]

Relations with Russian ultra-nationalists and anti-government coups[]

Antonina Beloglazova, the second person in his party and editor of the Shariy website, collaborated in Russia in 2015-2016 with the National Liberation Movement (NCD), which aims to "restorate of Russia's sovereignty". This movement has been repeatedly observed at various pro-Putin events.[39]

Konstantin Mamrosenko, Beloglazova's brother, who heads department "B" in the "Shariy Party", together with the terrorist "Motorola" took part in the seizure of the Kharkiv Regional State Administration during the so-called "Russian Spring" in 2014.[39][40]

Tarasy Plaksiy, the curator of the Shariy party in Khmelnytsky, Chernivtsi and Ternopil regions, was at the Alabino military training ground in the Russian Federation in 2017, where Russian special forces are stationed, and took part in the patriotic event "Fight for Russia Day".[39][41][42]

Threats and attacks[]

On supporters and party members[]

The supporters and members of the Party of Shariy were repeatedly attacked,[43][44] using physical force, a mobile phone was also broken in one of these attacks, and soon one of the attackers was identified: a certain Konstiantyn Ustyuzhin, a citizen of Ukraine. In connection with this, a statement about the attack was written and then sent to the National Police of Ukraine for further investigation.[45] After the " Mute President - Not My President" action, a wave of attacks on supporters of the "Party of Shariy" began.

Thus, on June 24 in Kharkiv, a supporter of the " Party of Shariy" - Nikita Rozhenko was beaten. Criminal proceedings on the attack on Nikita Rozhenko, coordinator of the "Party of Shariy" in Kharkiv, are being investigated as an attempt on murder committed by prior conspiracy of a group of people.[46][47][48][49][50]

This has been followed by regular violent actions against supporters of the "Shariy Party". In Vinnitsa, Mykolaiv, Kharkiv, Kyiv, Zhytomyr, Cherkasy.[51][52][53][54] Many of the supporters had broken ribs.[55]

A "safari" in the Party members was openly announced by the National Corps.[56] [57]

According to the journalist Andriy Kachor (Ukrainian: Андрій Качор) - he received threats from Sharij Party supporters after the publication on his site about the burning of Sharij Party agitation materials by unknown Vinnytsia people.[63][64]

As it turned out later, the police of Vinnytsia region identified the attacker on the chief editor of the local newspaper Andrey Kachor and found no connection between the attack and Kachor's conflict with video blogger Anatoliy Shariy.[65][66]

"The police said they had found the man who had beaten Kachor. The attacker was a 27-year-old resident of Vinnitsa. According to him, there was a verbal altercation between him and Kachor in the cafe, which turned into a fight. The man denies any relation with the video blogger Anatolia Shariy, and calls the conflict situational."[67]
