Extract

The radical right in the Ukrainian political spectrum is dominated by three movements—the Nationalist Union Ukrainian State Independence (DSU), the Ukrainian National Assembly (UNA, formerly the Ukrainian Inter-Party Assembly, UMPA) and the Congress of Ukrainian Nationalists (KUN). The UNA is dominated by the highly secretive Ukrainian Nationalist Union (UNS) which grew out of the nationalist wing of the Association of Independent Ukrainian Youth (SNUM). The KUN was launched in 1992 in Ukraine as the overt arm of the émigré Organisation of Ukrainian Nationalists-Bandera faction (known commonly as OUN revolutionaries, or OUNr).

15. Korobeynyk, V., a leading member of the Party of Democratic Revival of Ukraine, claimed that the organisations involved in the UNA had an “openly fascist orientation.” See Ukrainski Visti, 5 May 1991. This is why the PDVU, and the New Ukraine bloc, of which it was the main member, refused to join the Anti-Imperial, Anti-Communist Front, established in January 1993 to oppose the revival of communism in Ukraine because the UNA had joined it. Oksana Khomchuk argues that the radical right in Ukraine cannot be labelled as “fascist” because they are primarily statists, aiming to preserve the unity and independence of Ukraine on Ukrainian “ethnic territory.” See her, “The Far Right in Russia and Ukraine,” The Harriman Review, Vol. 8, No. 2, July 1995. They are, therefore, very different from the radical right in Russia.Google Scholar

86. Neskorena Natsiya, No. 7, April 1992. Supporters of the DSU, like the OUNr, are critically disposed towards the democratisation of the OUN which took place at its third extraordinary congress in 1943 in Ukraine. Different attitudes towards this democratization led to the second split in the OUN in 1954 in the emigration. See the article by Stanislav Ishenko in Napriam, No. 5, 1991.Google Scholar

89. As Stanislav Ishenko pointed out, although the DSU was the closest in Ukraine to the traditions of the OUNr, nevertheless, “you have to renew it, modernise nationalist ideology and raise its level of activity.” This was a major cause in the split between the émigré OUNr, its traditionalist allies (DSU) and the UNA. See Napriam, No. 9, 1991.Google Scholar

90. Holos Ukrainy, 4 July 1991. Accordng to Zvarych, the OUNr cut off its contacts and financial assistance to the UMPA/UNA in September 1991 because it no longer complied with the ideological tenets of the émigré OUNr. The OUNr did not, therefore, back the presidential campaign of Shushkevych launched by the UNA. Conversation with Zvarych, Kyiv, 29 September 1995.Google Scholar

177. Ukrainska Dumka (London), 14 May 1992. Serhei Zhizhko argued that the main reason why Ukrainian nationalist groups are still weak is the lack of a Ukrainian national consciousness (Slovo, No. 10, 1992). Artymenko, Slavko, meanwhile, argues that there is no civil society and class differentiation of society in Ukraine and, therefore, ethnic nationalism will not have a popular base, while political parties (in contrast to nationalist movements) do not yet have public constituencies.
