Vlasiuk Vladyslav Viktorovych

Ukrainian lawyer, attorney, and civil servant

Since August 2024, Vlasiuk has held the position of adviser — Commissioner of the President of Ukraine on sanctions policy issues. He was born on February 25, 1989, in Vinnytsia (he has a twin brother Vitaliy), earned a higher education degree at the Faculty of Law of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv and a master's degree from Queen Mary University of London. He began his career as a lawyer and co-founder of the firm “ePravo,” participated in the National Police reform in 2015–2016, and from 2017 to 2019 headed the Human Rights Directorate of the Ministry of Justice. In 2020, after the appointment of Andriy Yermak, he became a freelance adviser to the Office of the President, subsequently taking the position of secretary of the Yermak-McFaul International Sanctions Group, and at the end of 2025, media actively named him the main candidate for the position of Head of the Office of the President (or acting technical head) following personnel changes on Bankova Street.

Despite a technocratic reputation, the official and his family became the center of high-profile property and corruption scandals

At the end of 2025, investigative journalists from the Oboz.ua and Pryamyi projects revealed that the advisor’s family owned 13 apartments, a solar business, and 3 Tesla cars, with interest in their wealth flaring amid systemic investigations of the Medical and Social Expert Commission (MSEC) — the official's father, Viktor Vlasiuk, led the Vinnytsia MSEC for many years and, together with the current head, founded the LLC "Solar Farmers." Additional public resonance was caused by the declarations of the commissioner himself: in April 2026, the publication "Glavkom" discovered that Vlasiuk declared nearly UAH 3 million in royalties from the charitable foundation "Kyiv School of Economics" (KSE) for alleged "scientific activity" but refused to publicly comment to journalists on the nature and content of his research.
