Viktor Anushkevychus, a Ukrainian politician who served as mayor of Ivano-Frankivsk, died on September 15, 2026, aged 63.
He was born on November 15, 1962, in Vorkuta, in the Komi Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic of the Russian SFSR, then part of the Soviet Union. His full name was Viktor Andriusovich Anushkevychus; his surname is also spelled Anushkevichus.
Alongside his political work, he was an engineer and businessman, and belonged to the Ukrainian People’s Party (UPP). Anushkevychus served two terms as mayor, from March 2006 until December 2015. During his tenure, he was among the first elected officials to make international relations and trade partnerships with other countries a priority for Ivano-Frankivsk. That focus placed the city’s connections beyond Ukraine and commercial ties among the priorities he brought to municipal leadership. His years in office thus combined the responsibilities of leading the city with attention to its international relationships and trade links. The biographical record identifies this emphasis on external partnerships as a distinctive part of his work as mayor, alongside his engineering and business occupations and his party affiliation. His mayoral service concluded in December 2015, after two terms leading Ivano-Frankivsk.
