Cornell the results were finalized only yesterday. The only party that did not make it is Communist party. Svoboda took a big cut but is still in thanks to West Ukrainian regions.
I remember attending a seminar in George Washington University a while ago dedicated to the anniversary of Arab Spring, where the leading authority on Middle East compared the Muslim Brotherhood to Salvation Army tried to convince us that that is all what they are. When a colleague of mine (not Jewish, actually a catholic) questioned this statement he dismissed it. Six months later she wrote to the coordinator suggesting that in view of the latest developments he should at least send a retraction of his oppinion
I am attaching a link from the Guardian (thank G-d no need to translate) that is more informative and realistic

Lastly, latest fundraising from Jewish Federation list this among Jewish causes. I copy "Provide an elderly Jew under attack in Ukraine with heating fuel, warm blankets and winter relief"
Thought you all would like to know.
