Socialist Ukraine (Ukrainian: Соціалістична Україна, romanized: Sotsialistychna Ukrayina) is a political party in Ukraine. The first head of the party is V. Blyzniuk. The location of the central statutory bodies was the city of Kharkiv. The party was launched on October 12, 2005 by Vladimir Goshovsky, an expelled MP from the Socialist Party of Ukraine (SPU). Goshovsky accused the SPU of corruption and said it was 'an oligarch party, created for one leader'.[1]
History
Socialist Ukraine officially registered on September 15, 2004 as the People's Choice Party at the Constituent Party Congress in Kharkiv. Registered by the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine on December 23, 2004 (registration number 103-p.p.).[2] Prior to that In 2002, the party participated in the elections of People's Deputy of Ukraine in a multi-mandate district as part of the Electoral Bloc of political parties "Unity" (Ukrainian: Єдність). Representatives of the bloc did not receive deputy mandates.
At the 2nd congress of the party, held on September 24, 2005, a decision was made on the re-election of the governing bodies (Vladimir Goshovsky was elected as the head of the party at this time). Then changes were made to the statute and program, and the name of the party was changed to the Party "Socialist Ukraine". And on December 15, 2005, a new version of the party's program was approved at the III Party Congress.

On December 18, 2011, at the unifying congress of five political forces, the party announced its joining the Socialist Party of Ukraine.[5] But even so, the last national election the party took part in was the 2012 Ukrainian parliamentary election. In this election, the party had 10 candidates in constituencies, but none won a parliamentary seat.[6]
