## About

Kyiv Post is Ukraine's English-language paper of record, founded in 1995 for foreign readers, diplomats, and investors. The paradox is that an outlet that survived two decades of press-freedom struggles was shut down by its owner in 2021 before relaunching under new ownership in 2022. Its beat is now the war, foreign aid, sanctions, and Russian war crimes, in the cadence of an outlet writing at the front line.

## Profile

- **Ownership:** Privately held; relaunched in 2022 under new ownership after the 2021 closure under previous owner Adnan Kivan
- **Funding:** Subscriptions, advertising, syndication, philanthropic and foundation support
- **Focus areas:** Russia-Ukraine war coverage, Ukrainian politics and reform, foreign aid and sanctions, Russian disinformation and war crimes, defence and diplomacy


## What the position means

TOLD classifies what an outlet publishes over time, based on ownership, funding
and focus. It describes a pattern; it is not a rating of quality and not a
ranking. Nothing in TOLD sorts, hides or promotes a source by its position.
State-aligned and partisan outlets are in the catalogue on purpose, labelled.
