Ukrainian National Assembly – Ukrainian People's Self-Defence

A Ukrainian nationalist organization. It is composed by a political wing (the Ukrainian National Assembly – UNA) and a paramilitary wing (Ukrainian People's Self-Defence – UNSO).

According to Andreas Umland and Anton Shekhovtsov, the UNA-UNSO was created in 1991 as a "formation manned by UNA members who had served in the Soviet Armed Forces ... to confront the State Committee on the State of Emergency". The UNA-UNSO has been described by international security expert Andrew McGregor as an "influential but fringe movement", which deeply influenced far-right politics in Ukraine due its visibility and militancy, although it still had small numbers. Although the Ukrainian National Assembly (UNA) was the organization's political wing, on 22 May 2014 it merged with Right Sector; the UNSO continues to operate independently. The UNA-UNSO party was re-established in August 2015.

The UNSO has participated in multiple international conflicts by sending volunteers to support various belligerents. Including the First Nagorno-Karabakh War, Transnistria War, the War in Abkhazia, First Chechen War, the Yugoslav Wars and the Russo-Ukrainian War.
