In 1993, the Stepan Bandera Sports-Patriotic Association Tryzub (Trident) was established by KUN as its paramilitary arm, mimicking UNA, DSU and the SNPU who also established paramilitary formations. Tryzyb also followed in the tradition of a political organization (KUN / OUN) having its military forces (Tryzub / UPA). "
