Possible dismantlement

In an interview with the Silski Visti (Village News) newspaper on 29 January 2009 Yuriy Lutsenko declared that "The People's Self-Defense as an insurgent, protesting, and not very structured civil movement has ceased to exist". Lutsenko also said he was planning to direct the organizational changes to the political party Forward, Ukraine!.[1] In April 2010 Forward, Ukraine! renamed itself People's Self-Defense Political Party.[2] Lutsenko became leader of that party.[3]
