The Dictatorship Resistance Committee (Ukrainian: Комітет опору диктатурі, Russian: Комитет сопротивления диктатуре) is a political alliance in Ukraine formed by several parliamentary factions, political parties and opposition activist groups, initially founded to oppose the former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych. Parliamentary members of the alliance joined the All-Ukrainian Association Fatherland (Batkivshchyna) as an umbrella coalition All-Ukrainian Association Fatherland – United Opposition in the 2012 Ukrainian parliamentary elections.

History

[edit]

The Dictatorship Resistance Committee was formed in August 2011 and came to join some other opposition alliances that were already active; most parties had joined forces one year earlier in People's Committee to Protect Ukraine.[2] It was especially designed to promote public and civic actions against the conviction of former Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, who was also the leader of one of the member parties.[3]

In late September 2011, Tymoshenko called for the opposition to run the elections on a single-party ticket.[4] In November 2011, the parties of the Dictatorship Resistance Committee chose the candidates who would be on the joint electoral lists for the electoral district ballots in the 2012 Ukrainian parliamentary elections.[5][6]

Members

By March 2012, the Committee consisted of the following parties:[7]

Although UDAR of Vitaliy Klychko did not join the Dictatorship Resistance Committee it signed an agreement on 22 January 2012 on joint actions with the alliance.[9]
