On May 25th 2014, Ukrainians went to the polls to elect a new president. These were the first elections since the EuroMaidan Revolution ousted Viktor Yanukovych at the end of February 2014.
According to exit polling data, Petro Poroshenko, the Roshen-owning chocolatier who supported the Maidan against Yanukovych, has won in the first round with between 55.7 per cent and 57.3 per cent of the vote (source: Ukrainska Pravda; Ramuzkov Centre; TNS).
