Founded 1999
Batkivshchyna is a national-conservative and populist-centrist party in Ukraine. As one of the country's oldest political forces, it combines a pro-European orientation with a strong focus on social justice and the protection of national sovereignty.
Values and Ideology
The party's foundation is built upon a value-conservative patriotism combined with a strong social agenda. It views the state as the protector of ordinary citizens and rural communities. Its worldview is shaped by the vision of a strong, independent Ukraine, committed to defending its cultural identity against external influences. The party advocates for a "social market economy," critically questioning privatizations and considering sovereignty over national resources, particularly land, as inviolable.
Political Priorities
The party's agenda is heavily focused on strengthening the welfare state, prioritizing higher pensions, lower energy costs, and robust employment protection. A key objective is ensuring the agricultural sector remains under Ukrainian control.
Role in the Political System
Within Ukraine's political landscape, the party operates as an experienced centrist force, frequently assuming the role of a vocal opposition. It employs populist rhetoric to critique structural reforms that, in its view, threaten social equilibrium. Strategically, it navigates a path between supporting Western institutions and advocating for a protectionist course. Despite its long-standing presence, it continually faces the challenge of maintaining its position against newer, personality-driven political movements, all while underscoring the importance of parliamentary stability.
