Galyna Yanchenko's New Partnership
Ukrainian Member of Parliament Galyna Yanchenko has revealed she is in a new relationship with businessman Yurii Fedorov. This announcement follows her divorce from Viktor Andrusiv, a former advisor to the Head of the President's Office and a military serviceman, who filed for divorce in November 2022. Their 17-year marriage was formally dissolved in 2023.
Family Life and Political Shifts
Yanchenko and Andrusiv share two children: a son named Askold and a daughter named Afina. Following the divorce, Yanchenko expressed gratitude to her former husband for their time together, stating:
“That's it. Our family with Viktor Andrusiv has ceased to exist. We are grateful to each other for 17 years of a shared journey. We move forward, but now each on our own path.”
Yanchenko's new partner, Yurii Fedorov, is the head and co-founder of the Kharkiv Plant of Individual Protection Equipment. In a related personal and professional shift, the MP has also decided to leave the 'Servant of the People' political party. In a social media post, she reflected on her new chapter, writing:
“Love is... catching a thrill from shared adventures. 365 days a year.”
These personal developments occur amidst a period of flux in Ukrainian politics, where many figures are reassessing their affiliations. Yanchenko's departure from the ruling party may indicate a search for a new political direction, reflecting broader shifts in the landscape. It remains to be seen how these changes in her personal and political life will influence her future work in parliament.
