About me

For all the media inquiries, please, contact press@goloszmin.org. I will do my best to spread the word about what is happening here on the ground.

Hi, I am Kira. 👋

I work in politics because I realized it is the best way to make change to people’s lives faster and with the most efficiency. Some time ago I would tell you that I am passionate about digitalisation, equal opportunities, startups and protection of homeless animals.

Right now, there is a war in my country, so I am passionate about one thing: the victory.

Every morning I ask my team and myself of what I can do today so that my country will win.

“Golos” party

Golos is a liberal democratic party founded by Sviatoslav Vakarchuk in 2019.

Our goal is to build a modern, European country, with the maximum reduction of various forms of state regulation. We stand for the path of peaceful, reformist implementation of social transformations.

Our party upholds liberal values

👆 Citizen is more important than the state

👆 Equality of all people in respect of individual rights

👆 In the economy - the open market, freedom of enterprise, minimal government intervention in market rules

👆 The state has equal rules for all, the rule of law and European legal principles

👆 In the social sphere - equal opportunities and non-discrimination

👆 We are the first parliamentary party to openly support Pride in Kyiv

👆 A separate important marker for us is the environment and Ukraine's participation in the European Green Course

👆 We are progressive, focused on innovation and digitalization

👆 We are young. The average age of party members is 31 years. We care about our future and plan it in Ukraine

👆 We are a pro-Ukrainian party. Ukrainian language, culture, history and statehood are important to us

There are 20 members of Parliament in the Golos faction in the Verkhovna Rada. 9 of them are women.

In the 2020 local council elections, we won 300 seats from West to East.

Half of our local council deputies are women.
