Addition
The party indicated that "on July 1, the Supreme Court of Ukraine ruled on the legality of the activities of the 'Nash Kray' party and the illegality of attempts to ban it....Accusations against the party with a demand for its ban due to alleged pro-Russian and anti-state positions were recognized by the court as groundless and illegal."
Recall
On June 19, the Eighth Appellate Administrative Court completed the consideration of case No. 857/6/24, which concerned the ban of the political party "Nash Kray". The panel of judges ruled in favor of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine, supporting the demand to terminate the activities of this political force.
According to the resolution, all material and financial resources of the party, including property, funds, and assets of its regional branches, were subject to transfer to state ownership. The impetus for filing the lawsuit was an appeal from the Bobrovytsia City Council, which called "Nash Kray" a political force allegedly involved in collaborationism and betrayal of state interests. The political force filed an appeal.
