Avtomaidan
⚠️ Violation Context
The All-Ukrainian Association Avtomaidan delegated members to the Public Integrity Council’s first and second compositions, including Roman Maselko and Yevheniia Motorevska, who served on the second composition when it unanimously adopted the revised Indicators of Integrity on 16 December 2020.
Avtomaidan’s relationship with the PIC is not limited to personnel. The Council’s own website names Avtomaidan among its partners through the PROSUD project, which compiles and supplies material on judges — the raw input on which the Council’s integrity conclusions are built.
The PIC’s Indicators of Integrity, paragraph 1.5, treat a judge who “without urgent need visited the Russian Federation after the start of the armed aggression, temporarily occupied territories” as displaying support for aggression, placing occupied Ukrainian territory and the aggressor state in a single enumeration.
This profile does not allege that Avtomaidan has made any statement recognizing Crimea as Russian territory. It has not.
Ukrainian Law Violations (applicable through institutional sponsorship):#
- Constitution of Ukraine, Article 2 — Territory of Ukraine is indivisible and inviolable.
- Constitution of Ukraine, Articles 73, 133–134 — Crimea is defined as an integral part of Ukraine.
- Law of Ukraine No. 1207-VII (2014) — Crimea is Ukrainian territory under temporary occupation, not foreign territory.
🏛️ About
Avtomaidan#
Delegating organization and, through PROSUD, a supplier of the Council’s raw material
The All-Ukrainian Association Avtomaidan is a civic organization registered in April 2014. It is documented on CrimeaWatch on two grounds: it delegated members to the Public Integrity Council’s first and second compositions, and through its PROSUD project it supplies the Council with material on judges — the input from which integrity conclusions, including those concerning Crimea, are produced.
Why This Profile Exists#
Two of Avtomaidan’s delegates, Roman Maselko and Yevheniia Motorevska, served on the second composition through 16 December 2020, when the PIC unanimously adopted the revised Indicators containing paragraph 1.5.
The second ground is operational rather than personnel-based. The PIC’s own presentation of itself names Avtomaidan among its partners via PROSUD, a project that assembles dossiers on judges and judicial candidates. Where a delegating organization supplies members, PROSUD supplies the evidentiary base those members work from. An organization that provides both is further from arm’s length than one that provides either.
Avtomaidan did not take part in the 2023 or 2025 cycles.
Supplying the Input, Not Only the Personnel#
The distinction matters for how this documentation reads. Throughout this site, delegation is treated as institutional sponsorship and explicitly not as authorship of the Council’s conclusions — the delegates vote, the organizations do not.
The PROSUD relationship sits closer to the conclusions themselves. Material compiled on a judge’s travel, property or family ties is the substance on which paragraph 1.5 operates. This page records the relationship as the PIC itself describes it, without asserting what any particular dossier contained.
Ukrainian law treats occupied Crimea as Ukrainian territory under temporary occupation (Constitution, Articles 2, 73, 133–134; Law No. 1207-VII of 2014), a regime deliberately distinct from that of a foreign state. Paragraph 1.5 assesses conduct as though that distinction did not exist.
What This Profile Does Not Claim#
CrimeaWatch documents no statement by Avtomaidan recognizing Crimea as Russian territory, and none is alleged here.
The first composition falls outside the methodology claim: the 2016 delegation predates the Indicators, whose first version was adopted on 11 January 2019, and is recorded as institutional history rather than as a documented instance.
Delegation is not a vote. The delegates voted on 16 December 2020; the organization did not. Nor does this page assert that PROSUD material was the basis of any specific conclusion — only that the PIC names Avtomaidan as a partner supplying material on judges.
Nomination Record#
In the assembly that formed the Council’s first composition in 2016, the organization put forward 5 candidates and 5 were seated. Its nominations overlapped with those of Transparency International Ukraine. Across the assembly as a whole, nine organizations submitted 30 nominations covering 24 distinct people for 20 seats, and 6 of the 20 members elected were nominated by two organizations at once.
Cross-nomination is permitted by the procedure and is not in itself irregular. It is recorded here because the authority of the Council’s Indicators of Integrity rests on the breadth of the body that adopts them, and the published candidate tables are the only public measure of that breadth. See Who Vetted the Vetters for the full arithmetic.
Response and Corrections#
Avtomaidan may submit a response or a correction request to [email protected]. Submissions are assessed against the underlying sources. Where a statement on this page is shown to be inaccurate, incomplete or out of date, the profile is amended and the correction is recorded.
CrimeaWatch does not publish responses verbatim and gives no undertaking to reproduce them. What a verified response changes is the content of this profile.
Summary#
Avtomaidan is documented on this site as a delegating organization of the Public Integrity Council’s first and second compositions — two of its delegates serving when the revised Indicators were unanimously adopted on 16 December 2020 — and as a partner named by the Council itself through the PROSUD project, which supplies material on judges for integrity assessment.
The organization has not publicly addressed the contradiction between paragraph 1.5 of those Indicators and the legal regime Ukrainian law establishes for the temporarily occupied peninsula.
