Thus, according to Ishchenko "the only things the party has in common with the determined Bolshevik revolutionaries of the past who spared neither themselves nor others are devotion to the Soviet symbols and appeals to empty ~~“Marxist~~-~~Leninist”~~ phrases".<ref name="theguardian" />		Writing on ''The Guardian'', Ukrainian sociologist Volodymyr Ishchenko described the KPU as a "conservative and pro-Russian group", whose leaders "became a part of the bourgeois elite and invited business support for their cause", pointing out that the richest deputy of the [[7th Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada]] (Oksana Kaletnik) was a member of the Communist faction.

Grettoonist: Undid revision 1214071119 by Vif12vf (talk) What are we referring to precisely on bias, the sources themselves? The party's position on social issues as heavily conservative and reactionary, and its priority over Russian nationalism and natalism, while maintaining relations with right-leaning entities like the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, is rather indisputable.
