Russian Unity (Ukrainian: Руська Єдність; Russian: Русское Единство) was a political party in Crimea, registered in October 2008.[1] A Kyiv Court banned the party "from activity on the territory of Ukraine" on 30 April 2014.[2] Party leader Sergey Aksyonov was instrumental in making possible the annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation.[2][3][4] The party was based in Crimea, which has a Russian-speaking majority. The party was dissolved on 5 May 2014.
Although the party took positions on a number of issues, the party's main focus was Russian language rights and promoting Ukrainian relations with Russia[5] before the 2014 Crimean Crisis, in which it became supportive of secession from Ukraine to join Russia; after this occurred, it merged into the Russian political party United Russia.
