The coalition became a political party on 22 March 2014, at which time it claimed to have perhaps 10,000 members.Founding groups included Trident (Tryzub), led by Dmytro Yarosh and Andriy Tarasenko; and the Ukrainian National Assembly–Ukrainian National Self-Defense (UNA–UNSO), a political/paramilitary organization. Other founding groups included the Social-National Assembly and its Patriot of Ukraine paramilitary wing, White Hammer, and Carpathian Sich. White Hammer was expelled in March 2014, and in the following months Patriot left the organization along with many UNA-UNSO members.In June 2014 one of the groups was assigned by the Interior Ministry to surveil Mariupol after it captured the city from Russian-backed insurgents.Right Sector's political ideology has been described as nationalist, ultranationalist, neofascist, right-wing, or far right. Right Sector was the second-most mentioned political group in Russian media during the first half of 2014; Russian state TV depicted it as neo-Nazi. The Associated Press found no evidence that the group had committed hate crimes. In the 2014 Ukrainian parliamentary election Yarosh as a Right Sector candidate won a parliament seat by winning a single-member district with 29.8% of the votes. Right Sector spokesperson Boryslav Bereza as an independent candidate also won a seat and district with 29.4% of the votes.Since 5 April 2015 Yarosh has acted as an advisor to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and on 11 November he formally stepped down as the group's leader. On 27 December he announced that he and his team would be withdrawing from the group entirely, declaring that Right Sector had fulfilled its purpose 'as a revolutionary structure' and was no longer needed. He stated he and his faction were against pseudo-revolutionary activity that threatens the state, fringe radicalism, and were against violent revolts against the current government. In a statement issued by Right Sector in response to Yarosh's departure, Right Sector stated the schism was due to continuing a 'revolutionary path'. The departure of Yarosh resulted in at least 20% of Right Sector members leaving with him. In February 2016 Yarosh started a new organisation called Governmental Initiative of Yarosh."@en }
