The Kyiv Post is Ukraine's leading English-language newspaper.

The Kyiv Post was founded in September 1995 (as part of KP Media) by an American, Jed Sunden. The paper covers politics, business and entertainment. The staff is a team of Western and Ukrainian journalists. Historically, the editorial policy has supported democracy and free markets. It has published investigative stories, including coverage of the 2000 murder of journalist Georgiy Gongadze, the 2004 Orange Revolution and political corruption. The Kyiv Post launched a Ukrainian-Russian language version of the paper in July 2010 to reach a mass audience,

KP Media (thus Sunden) sold the newspaper to British citizen Mohammad Zahoor on July 28, 2009. Zahoor owns the ISTIL Group and is a native of Pakistan and a former (since 2008) trader in steel production in Donetsk. Zahoor publishes the newspaper through his Public Media company.

From December 14, 2010, The Kyiv Post began blocking all internet traffic from the United Kingdom (UK) as a protest against UK libel law. Ukrainian businessman Dmytro Firtash had started a libel lawsuit against Kyiv Post in the UK at the time; the case was struck out late February 2011 because the UK court believed Firtash had no major connection with the country.

Kiev or Kyiv (Ukrainian: Київ [ˈkɪjiw] ( listen); Russian: Киев) is the capital and the largest city of Ukraine, located in the north central part of the country on the Dnieper River. The population as of the 2001 census was 2,611,300. However, higher numbers have been cited in the press.

Kiev is an important industrial, scientific, educational and cultural centre of Eastern Europe. It is home to many high-tech industries, higher education institutions and world-famous historical landmarks. The city has an extensive infrastructure and highly developed system of public transport, including the Kiev Metro.

The name Kiev is said to derive from the name of Kyi, one of four legendary founders of the city (brothers Kyi, Shchek, Khoryv, and sister Lybid). During its history, Kiev, one of the oldest cities in Eastern Europe, passed through several stages of great prominence and relative obscurity. The city probably existed as a commercial centre as early as the 5th century. A Slavic settlement on the great trade route between Scandinavia and Constantinople, Kiev was a tributary of the Khazars, until seized by the Varangians (Vikings) in the mid-9th century. Under Varangians rule, the city became a capital of the Rus', the first East Slavic state. Completely destroyed during the Mongol invasion in 1240, the city lost most of its influence for the centuries to come. It was a provincial capital of marginal importance in the outskirts of the territories controlled by its powerful neighbours; first the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, followed by Poland and Russia.
