Gennadiy Leonidovich Trukhanov[a] (born 17 January 1965) is a Ukrainian politician. He is the mayor of Odesa since 2014.[1][2] Since 2022, he has focused on constructing fortifications, prioritizing budget policies to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine and territorial defense units, and establishing a city humanitarian aid center for refugees. In May 2023, the High Anti-Corruption Court of Ukraine ordered Trukhanov's arrest for his failure to post bail in relation to an ongoing embezzlement investigation.[3][4] The case is one of several involving allegations of corruption in Odesa municipality, with connections to Trukhanov, which have attracted the attention of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine.[4]
