Christopher Miller

Ukraine correspondent

Christopher Miller is the FT's chief Ukraine correspondent. He has lived in and reported from Ukraine since 2010, and is the author of "The War Came To Us: Life And Death In Ukraine", winner of the 2024 Witold Pilecki International Book Award. His reporting has focused on Ukrainian politics, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's relationship with Donald Trump, and various aspects of Russia's war against Ukraine. His work has exposed Russian war crimes and revealed the plight of people forced to live under brutal occupation. Miller was previously a world and national security reporter for Politico and a world correspondent for BuzzFeed News in Kyiv.

Miller's Ukraine reporting for the FT won a citation award from the Overseas Press Club of America in 2024. With FT colleagues, he was a Society of Advancing Business Editing and Writing (SABEW) Best in Business award winner in the Technology division. As an editor and reporter at Ukraine's Kyiv Post newspaper in 2014, Miller helped lead the team that won the Missouri Honor Medal Winner for Distinguished Service in Journalism for coverage of the Euromaidan revolution, Russia's annexation of Crimea and its first invasion of eastern Ukraine. His work has been highly commended by the British Journalism Awards for innovation of the year and shortlisted for best foreign affairs journalism.
