One of the youngest leaders of Avtomaidan — Sergey Koba under the threat of arrest was forced to leave Ukraine. He is now launching Avtomaidan movement in Europe, thus he arranged meetings in Paris, Davos and Vienna. Main aim is organisation of protests near Ukrainian oligarchs offices and houses, providing political refuge and medical care for people who suffered from Ukrainian government actions. Today Avtomaidan already exists on the national level — it is represented in all regions of Ukraine, people have organized themselves and the coordination between regions. Not only are car drivers members of Avtomaidan, but also motorcyclists and even bicyclists started to support the movement. Thus, Ivan Rudyak the president of motoclub “Night birds” has recently appealed to all motorcyclist in order to encourage them to join the protests.
