former defence minister of Ukraine

Mykhailo Fedorov is a Ukrainian statesman, born on 21 January 1991 in Vasylivka, Zaporizhzhia Oblast. From 2019 until January 2026 he served as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine.

On 14 January 2026 the Verkhovna Rada appointed Fedorov Minister of Defence. He was dismissed in July 2026, which led to rallies in his support in Mykolaiv, Kyiv and other cities. He turned down other government posts, and in August 2026 agreed to become an adviser on defence innovation to Italy's Defence Minister Guido Crosetto. In October 2026 Russia put him on its wanted list.

MykVisti covers Fedorov's decisions at the Ministry of Defence, his statements after his dismissal and the rallies calling for his return.
