The Kyiv Independent
Ukrainian pro-independence, center-left by Western standards
The Kyiv Independent is a Ukrainian English-language digital newspaper with no single majority owner — its staff and the consultancy Jnomics Media share ownership. It is funded mostly by reader subscriptions rather than state or corporate sources. Its coverage of the Trump administration's second term is broadly critical, centered on what it characterizes as a U.S. shift away from supporting Ukraine against Russia.
