The Komsomol of Ukraine, officially the Leninist Communist League of Youth of Ukraine (ЛКСМУ, Ukrainian: Ленінська Комуністична Спілка Молоді України; Russian: Ленинский Коммунистический Союз Молодёжи Украины), was a youth organization in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic under the Communist Party of Ukraine, a component part of the All-Union Lenin's Communist League of Youth (Komsomol).[1] It was first established in 1919 as the youth wing of the Communist Party (Bolsheviks) of Ukraine and later revived in 1997 as the youth wing of the modern Communist Party of Ukraine; that party was banned in 2015 and terminated in 2022.[2]
During the interbellum period between both World Wars, the organization closely cooperated with the Young Communist League of Western Ukraine which was a component part of the Young Communist League of Poland.[3]
