Despite some progress, the old way of conducting politics still continues in post-Maidan Ukraine, says Serhiy Leschenko a Member of Parliament and outspoken critic of oligarchic influence in Ukrainian politics. Recent revelations about alleged corruption in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which resulted in the resignation of a deputy minister, are emblematic of this problem.

While the new blood was infused into parliamentary following the October 2014 elections, the old guard still dominates while newer political figures have found it easier to conduct politics as before. Oligarchic influence in parliament is still significant. Ultimately, corruption saps European support for Ukraine, which is hesitant to use tax-payersโ€™ money to support the country economically. While the old guard still dominates, there has been some recent progress with the passage of a batch of reforms. Leschenko believes that one beneficial approach to limit oligarchic influence in policy-making would be the introduction of public financing of political parties. This would increase transparency and lessen the dependence of parties on oligarchโ€™s money.
