The history of Ambassadors of the United States to Ukraine began in 1992. Until 1991 the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic had been a constituent SSR of the Soviet Union. Upon the breakup of the USSR, the parliament of Ukraine declared the nation’s independence on August 24, 1991. On December 1, 1991, the people of Ukraine voted to approve the declaration by a wide margin. The United States recognized Ukraine on December 26, 1991 and the U.S. embassy in Kiev was established January 23, 1992, with Jon Gundersen as ''Chargé d’Affaires ad interim''. The first ambassador was commissioned in May 1992. The U.S. Embassy in Ukraine is located in Kiev. ==Ambassadors== *Name: Roman Popadiuk (Роман Попадюк) – Career FSO * *Title: Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary * *Appointed: May 11, 1992 * *Presented credentials: June 4, 1992 * *Terminated mission: Left post July 30, 1993 *Name: William Green Miller – Political appointee * *Title: Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary * *Appointed: September 16, 1993 * *Presented credentials: October 21, 1993 * *Terminated mission: Left post January 6, 1998 *Name: Steven Pifer – Career FSO * *Title: Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary * *Appointed: November 10, 1997 * *Presented credentials: ''Unknown'' * *Terminated mission: Left post October 9, 2000 *Name: Carlos Pascual – Career FSO * *Title: Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary * *Appointed: September 15, 2000 * *Presented credentials: October 22, 2000 * *Terminated mission: Left post May 1, 2003 *Name: John E.
