Eduard Leonidovych Matviychuk (Ukrainian: Едуард Леонідович Матвійчук; born 27 April 1963) is a Ukrainian politician, who served as Governor of Odesa Oblast from 2010 to 2013, and later a People's Deputy of Ukraine from 2014 to 2019.[1]

A member of the Party of Regions, Matviychuk was appointed Governor of Odesa Oblast on 18 March 2010. Key issues during his tenure included education, such as the distribution of school busses, as well as disagreements with the federal government, which resulted in his transfer from Governor to advisor to the President in November 2013, a position he remained until President Yanukovych was overthrown in February 2014, triggering the pro-Russian unrest and the Russo-Ukrainian war.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]

In the 2014 Ukrainian parliamentary election, Matviychuk successfully ran as an independent candidate in the 133rd electoral district, which includes parts of the city of Odesa, winning in a crowded field with 24.20% of the vote. He did not seek re-election in 2019, and was succeeded by Artem Dmytruk.[1][10][11][12]
