Walking Together () was a Russian youth movement that was created by Vasily Yakemenko in May 2000. The group, which had over 50 thousand members in January 2002, was strongly pro-Putin and openly endorsed by President Vladimir Putin's administration. It had strict rules and indoctrination methods, and was openly criticized for its similarity to the Soviet Young Pioneers established by the Communist Party in 1922. The senior patron of the movement was Vladislav Surkov, the deputy head of the presidential administration. The group was transformed into "Nashi" (Ours) youth group in 2005 after a scandal involving the dissemination of pornography. while Sorokin fell out of favor with the Kremlin. Against this backdrop, the Kremlin created a new youth group call Nashi (Ours) in 2005.
