In the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election, Movchan ran to be a People's Deputy of Ukraine in Ukraine's 150th electoral district as the candidate of Servant of the People. At the time of the election, he was an independent. He was successfully elected, defeating independent incumbent Kostyantyn Zhevago with 42.54% of the vote to Zhevago's 23.72%. Movchan's election was significant for marking Zhevago's first electoral defeat since first becoming a People's Deputy in the 1998 Ukrainian parliamentary election. In the Verkhovna Rada (Ukraine's parliament), Movchan joined the Servant of the People faction and became a member of the Verkhovna Rada Economic Development Committee. He is also a member of the inter-factional associations "Ukrainians in the World", ECONOMICS.NOW, and For Accelerated Eurointegration of Ukrainian Businesses. Movchan acquired significant media attention when he hired Valeria Hrytsenko, a 24 year-old dancer, as his assistant. After information about Hrytsenko's resume were acquired by Ukrainian news organisations, Hrytsenko deleted the information, saying, "[W]hen I started working in the organisational field and as an assistant to a deputy of the Kyiv Oblast Council, I had already forgotten about those sites, and did not pay attention to the fact that my resumes remained there." Movchan defended his choice in assistants, noting that he knew her from their shared background in Kremenchuk, as well as her active interest in working as an assistant. References
