Servant of the People parliamentary faction leader Davyd Arahamiia has begun laying the groundwork for the political configuration of the next Verkhovna Rada around President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Preliminary assessments suggest that forming another single-party majority will no longer be possible.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine, citing sources in the upper ranks of the Ukrainian government.
The outlet’s sources described a possible future parliamentary arrangement involving a notional “Zelenskyy party,” an as-yet unformed “Budanov party,” and another political project in which Arahamiia may have interests. Under favourable circumstances, these forces could form a coalition.
However, the calculations remain highly preliminary. There is currently no clear prospect of the war ending or elections being held, while public sentiment could change substantially before an election campaign begins. The “Budanov party” is also only a provisional name for a possible political project, not an officially established party.
According to the outlet, Arahamiia became the main official responsible for domestic politics and the functioning of parliament following Andriy Yermak’s resignation. His role includes securing votes both within Servant of the People and among other parliamentary groups.
The sources also claim that Arahamiia played an active, though not decisive, role in the latest government reshuffle. He is reportedly credited with influencing the appointment of several new ministers and participating in informal talks with Ukraine’s foreign partners.
