Blok Juliji Tymoshenko (German: Block Julija Tymoshenko , abbreviation BJuT ) was a party alliance in the Ukraine from 2002 to 2012. His successor consists of the faction of the All-Ukrainian association “Fatherland” in the Verkhovna Rada from 2012. Chairman and namesake was the politician Julija Tymoshenko .
history
The bloc was established as part of the Ukrainian parliamentary elections in 2002. The moderately nationalist and corporatist All-Ukrainian Union " Fatherland " founded by Yulia Tymoshenko, the Ukrainian Social Democratic Party (USDP) , the nationalist Ukrainian People's Party "Collection" and the Ukrainian Republican Party were significantly involved . The alliance won 7.3% of the vote and occupied 21 of the 450 seats in the Verkhovna Rada . The BJuT founded a parliamentary group of the same name.
In the 2004 presidential election in Ukraine , the bloc supported the candidacy of Viktor Yushchenko , whose election victory was officially recognized only after the Orange Revolution . In addition to Yushchenko's alliance Nascha Ukrajina, the revolution was largely driven by the BJuT. On January 24, 2005, Yushchenko named Tymoshenko Prime Minister. Soon after, however, there was a rift, on September 8, the President dismissed Tymoshenko's government and their bloc went into the opposition.
In the parliamentary elections in 2006, the alliance was able to gain significantly and achieved 22.3% and 129 seats, making it the strongest of the parties in the Orange Revolution. In a coalition of pro-Western forces, Tymoshenko would presumably have become prime minister again. Surprisingly, however, the Socialist Party of Ukraine decided to support the anti-crisis coalition under Viktor Yanukovych with the Party of Regions and the Communists . Therefore, the parliamentary group belonging to the BJuT was now the leading opposition force.

In the early parliamentary elections in 2007 , the BJuT was the strongest force in initial projections. Most recently, however, he landed again in second place after the Party of Regions. With just under 31% of the vote, however, he was able to significantly expand his position in the Rada. Since it has a thin majority together with the Nascha Ukrajina - Narodna Samooborona (NU-NS) electoral alliance , the bloc sought a government of the so-called “Orange Revolution”. On the evening of October 15, the two electoral alliances signed a coalition agreement that granted the BJuT the post of head of government.
The blok Juliji Tymoshenko is in contact with the FDP . In 2007 the BJuT was offered observer status at the European People's Party . In 2010 he sends its chairwoman and namesake as a candidate for the presidential election of Ukraine.
In 2010, Yulia Tymoshenko lost the presidential election in Ukraine, but came in second after Viktor Yanukovych. In March 2010 she was dismissed as prime minister by the Ukrainian parliament. In early 2012, the Ukraine Forward Party , the previous USDP, was expelled from the blok Juliji Tymoshenko for alleged cooperation with the government of President Yanukovych. In the parliamentary elections in the same year, the remaining two members of the bloc ran together with the Front of Change and the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar people under the umbrella of the All-Ukrainian Fatherland Association .
