The Maidan People's Union (Ukrainian: Народне об'єднання "Майдан", romanized: Narodne obiednannya "Maidan") is an alliance in Ukraine formed by several political parties and non-partisan individuals and public organizations on the fifth Sunday (22 December 2013) of the Euromaidan-protests with the aim of "building a new Ukraine and a new Ukrainian government" [2] by creating a new Ukrainian constitution, and removing corrupt judges and prosecutors.[1][3] It also aims to organize opposition to the current regime and to coordinate the protest movement in all regions of the country.[2] In practice this means broadening support for the goals of the organization in the pro-government and pro-presidential heartland East Ukraine.[4]

During Euromaidan, the organization aimed[how?] to recruit millions of Ukrainians as members.[5] According to co-head of the organization Arseniy Yatsenyuk, "it will be a little bit like the Solidarity movement in Poland".[5]

History

[edit]

On 30 November 2013 the opposition parties Batkivshchyna, UDAR and Svoboda set up the National Resistance Headquarters.[6][7] At the time they controlled 168 seats of the 450 in the Verkhovna Rada (Ukraine's national parliament).[8]

On 22 December 2013, the fifth ongoing week of the Euromaidan-protests (100,000 rallied in Kyiv[9]) major opposition parties and non-partisans established a nationwide political movement called Maidan.[1][3] "Maidan" refers to/is the nickname of Maidan Nezalezhnosti where the Euromaidan-protests are centered.[4][10] The movement has the aim of broadening support for Euromaidan in East Ukraine where the support for the second Azarov Government and President Viktor Yanukovich is centred.[4] (At the first day of the movement) opposition leader Arseniy Yatsenyuk stated "Every person who wants a fair and honest future must be in favour of this movement".[4] Since 24 December 2013 the organization started to accept membership.[11]
