Early parliamentary elections in Ukraine took place on 30 September 2007. The date of the election was determined following agreement between the President Viktor Yushchenko, the Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych and the Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada (Ukrainian Parliament) Oleksandr Moroz on 27 May 2007, in an attempt to resolve the political crisis in Ukraine triggered by the 2 April 2007 presidential decree on dissolution of Ukraine's parliament. The 450 seats were divided among all parties that achieved a minimum 3% nationwide vote tally.〔(Against All Odds: Aiding Political Parties in Georgia and Ukraine (UvA Proefschriften) ) by Max Bader, Vossiuspers UvA, 2010, ISBN 90-5629-631-0 (page 93)〕 The number of seats that are allocated to each party, above the 3% participation rate quota, is calculated using the Hamilton method of apportionment.〔. Article 96.〕 In the election, an alliance of two electoral blocs associated with the Orange Revolution, Yulia Tymoshenko's Bloc (BYuT) and Our Ukraine-Peoples Self Defence (OU-PSD) obtained a narrow majority leaving their main rival, the Party of Regions (PoR) in opposition. ==Political crisis== (詳細はPresident and the parliamentary majority, which resulted in the dissolution of parliament.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=President dissolves parliament )〕 The majority in the parliament, known as Coalition of National Unity, was formed by Party of Regions, Communist Party, and Socialist Party). It was opposed by Yulia Tymoshenko Bloc and Our Ukraine. Early in 2007, several members of the opposition indicated their support to the ruling coalition. If sufficient numbers of members of parliament supported the government, the Coalition of National Unity could have secured a two-thirds majority, empowering the parliament to override the president's right of veto and enabling the parliament to initiate limited constitutional changes. On 2 April 2007, Yushchenko decreed the dissolution of the Verkhovna Rada.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tragedy and farce )〕 The authority of the president to dismiss the parliament was challenged in the Constitutional Court,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Legal Opinion with regard to the results of legal examination of Decree of the President of Ukraine dated April, 2 the year 2007 N 264 "On pre-term abatement of authority of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine" )〕 however following the president's intervention in the operation of the Constitutional Court the court has not ruled on the constitutionality of the president's decree.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Constitutional Court Judge Havrysh Doubts Constitutional Court Will Consider Petition On Constitutionality Of September 30 Rada Elections )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lavrynovych: Early elections should have been already recognized invalid today )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stanik Back Into the CC )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Yushchenko dismissed CCU judges ) 〕〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Supreme Court Restores Stanik As Constitutional Court Judge )〕 The election was originally scheduled to be held on 27 May 2007 and later postponed to 24 June 2007. On 27 May 2007 an agreement was signed by President Viktor Yushchenko, Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych, and Parliamentary Speaker Oleksandr Moroz, scheduling the elections to be held on 30 September 2007. The President's previous decrees were revoked and a new decree based on the provisions of Article 82 and Article 90 of Ukraine's Constitution was issued in its place in August 2007 following the resignation of over 150 members of the opposition parties. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ukrainian parliamentary election, 2007」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
