UKROP (Ukrainian: УКРОП, lit. 'dill' in Russian), short for the Ukrainian Association of Patriots (Ukrainian: Українське об'єднання патріотів, romanized: Ukrainske obiednannia patriotiv), was a political party in Ukraine. UKROP was established months after the Euromaidan Revolution of February 2014. The core of the party comprised civil society activists, participants of Euromaidan, volunteers and members of Ukrainian territorial defense battalions. In the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election the party won 3 seats in single-seat constituencies, but these were won by UKROP members as candidates for Servant of the People (the two parties had no formal allegiance). UKROP itself did not take part in the election. The name "ukrop" was initially a derogatory Russian slang term used to refer to Ukrainians; however, in this case some Ukrainians reclaimed the term "ukrop" to refer to themselves.
