Uncompromising, courageous and at the same time open and trusting. A person who knew how to make true friends. Andriy Parubiy found himself in politics very early, and Ukraine only benefited from this. He went from the organizer of the &#8220;Language Maidan&#8221; to the co-author of the &#8220;Law on Language&#8221;. He was the one who fought for the language in life and in parliament, and won,&#8221; he recalled. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1423931 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2242.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2242.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2242-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2242-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2242-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2242-650x433.jpeg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Andriy was, first and foremost, a statesman who did not think about elections. He went from the commandant of Euromaidan to the moment when we made amendments to the Constitution regarding integration into the EU and NATO. And here he succeeded. Andriy sincerely believed in God. When I returned from Constantinople and suggested that the parliament support the appeal to the Ecumenical Patriarch regarding the granting of the Tomos, Andriy said to give him 24 hours to do so. And he did it. He went through the entire path of the struggle for the Orthodox Church of Ukraine and stood next to me at the Phanar during the receipt of the Tomos,&#8221; Poroshenko noted. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1423934 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2244.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2244.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2244-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2244-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2244-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2244-650x433.jpeg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Andriy contributed to the development of the Ukrainian army. Back during the Maidan, he led hundreds of self-defense forces, who later joined the first battalions of the National Guard and went to the front in March 2014. Andriy Parubiy did an indescribable amount for Ukraine. Thank you to everyone who helped honor his memory and signed the petition to award him the title of Hero of Ukraine. Who signed the petition to name a street in Kyiv after Andriy Parubiy, and special thanks to our team in the Kyiv City Council for this. There is also a street in Lviv named after Andriy Parubiy, and we are grateful to the Lviv City Council for this,&#8221; the party leader added. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1423937 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2250-1024x683-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2250-1024x683-1.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2250-1024x683-1-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2250-1024x683-1-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/prm.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/img_2250-1024x683-1-650x434.jpeg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p> &#8220;No matter how many good deeds Andriy did, he never looked into the past &#8211; only into the future.
