Regional Committee in Protection of Revolution in Ukraine

The committee consisted of the following representatives from: List of members: Mykola Porsh (chairman), Mykhailo Tkachenko, Oleksandr Sevryuk, Mykola Kovalevsky, Andriy Nikovsky, Fedir Matushevsky, Yuriy Pyatakov, Mykyta Shapoval, Solomon Goldelman, S.Saradzhev, Anatoliy Pisotsky, Symon Petlyura, Mykola Shumytsky, Mykhailo Telezhynsky, Hryhoriy Kasyanenko, Isaak Kreisberg, Volodymyr Zatonsky, Moisei Rafes, Moisei Zilbelfarb.

The administration of the Kiev Military District (KVO) refused to recognize the committee and after the fall of the Provisional Government of Russia considered itself the only legitimate power in the city.

In order to reach a consensus with the headquarters of KVO, Symon Petlyura personally as the chairman of UHVK arrived for negotiations.

In protest against further negotiations with the Kiev Military District, the members of the rest Ukrainian political parties left the regional committee as well.

Due to such situation the committee was forced to dissolve and on November 10, 1917 transferred its authority to the General Secretariat of Ukraine.
