Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has appointed Mykhailo Brodovych, previously Ukraine’s ambassador to Slovenia, as Ukraine’s ambassador to Georgia.

The position of Ukraine’s ambassador to Georgia has been vacant since 2022, when Ihor Dolhov completed his diplomatic mission there. Following this, Ukraine was represented in Georgia by five chargés d’affaires, for less than four years. Since 2025, Roman Yakovenko has held the position of chargé d’affaires of Ukraine in Georgia.

Mykhailo Brodovych, born in 1957, has served in the diplomatic service at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine since 1996. He was a consul at the Consulate General of Ukraine in Istanbul (Turkey), Consul General of Ukraine in Krakow (Poland), and from 2015 to 2022 he was Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Ukraine to Slovenia.
