The Ukrainian Helsinki Union (Ukrainian: Украї́нська Ге́льсінська спі́лка, romanized: Ukrainska Helsinska spilka, abbreviated UHS) was a political party active in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic from 1988 to 1990. Led by Viacheslav Chornovil and Levko Lukianenko, it was the first non-communist party to be legal in Ukraine following the establishment of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, although it never referred to itself as such for legal reasons.
