Ukraines new post-Maidan parliament saw its first brawl yesterday, when Volodymyr Parasiuk (26 year-old Maidan sotnyk-turned-volunteer battalion leader-turned-MP who famously issued a final ultimatum to then-President Yanukovych in Feb. 2014) confronted MP Fedir Nehoy (of President Poroshenkos bloc). Fed up with the parliaments ineffectiveness, Parasiuk proclaimed Remember that the Maidan put you in office! to which Nehoy replied Youre not on the Maidan anymore! ... I suspect that this is only the beginning of a generational conflict in Ukrainian politics that will only get uglier.
