National Resistance (Національний Спротив) is far-right NGO led by Alexey ‘Stalker’ Svinarenko, it follows the ethno-nationalist ideology of “Identitarianism”, claiming to be resisting “white genocide” in Ukraine:

Join the column of Resistance! Stop the genocide of whites!

Today, the whole world is suffering from a wave of racially motivated crimes. Every year, tens of thousands of people are killed, raped and robbed just because they have white skin.

During the riots provoked by the left and antifa in the USA, bandits killed dozens of people and looted thousands of homes and shops.

We do not want a repetition of this in Ukraine! We do not want our land to be overrun by ethnic groups of migrants from Asian and African countries, as has already happened with the West and Russia. Let our descendants live here freely and peacefully, as masters, not slaves!

Stand under our flags! Stop the genocide! Against Western Marxism and Russian Stalinism! There is resistance!

National Resistance is a formation of a new model:
• The ideology of identitarianism is the fruit of the development of the right-wing Idea in the 21st century.
• Tactics and aesthetics of the Black Bloc.
• Non-standard asymmetric actions against enemies.

Originally an Odesa organization with an active branch in Kyiv. Together with other far-right groups, it participates in disrupting feminist events, criticizes “cultural Marxism” and calls for a fight against anti-fascists. Up to 10–15 people are gathered at the promotions.

The formal head of the organization is Serhiy Khodiyak, the only “pro-Ukrainian” defendant after the May 2 tragedy in Odesa. According to the investigation, he shot a “pro-Russian” participant in the march, injured a policeman and several passers-by. He is currently free without a preventive measure, and the judges refuse to pass a sentence on his case. During this time, Khodiyak committed another offense, as a result of which a police officer was injured.

The most active member of the Kyiv branch is Oleksiy Svynarenko (“Friend Stalker”). He fought in the scandalous volunteer battalion “Shakhtarsk”, on the basis of which the “Tornado” battalion was later formed, and in the “St. Mary” company. On his page on the social network, he said that he was involved in the murder of at least two Berkut citizens, however, after the investigation began, he retracted his words. Oleksiy Svynarenko is the main administrator of the Telegram channel, which publishes photos and personal information of left-wing activists, anti-fascists, LGBT+ representatives, and public activists critical of the far-right.

After the breakout of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, members of the National Resistance formed units as part of the Revanche Battalion to participate in the war effort, which they called the “Great Ukraine National Resistance” - Національного Спротиву Велика Україна:

The first combat group of the Great Ukraine National Resistance defends the capital.

A company of the National Resistance formed from combat groups as part of the Revansh battalion entered into battle with the Russian invaders at the line of defense of the capital.
