Metropolitan Vladimir (Volodymyr; secular name Viktor Markianovich Sabodan, Russian: Виктор Маркианович Сабодан, Ukrainian: Віктор Маркіянович Сабодан, 23 November 1935 – 5 July 2014) was the Metropolitan of Kiev and the Exarch of Ukraine in the Patriarchate of Moscow, and, ex officio, the head of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate) (UOC-MP) from 1992 to 2014.

His episcopal consecration was conferred on 9 July 1966 by Pimen I of Moscow in the Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius.

Later than year he was enthroned as Metropolitan of Kyiv and all Ukraine, replacing Metropolitan Filaret who was excommunicated for “participating in schismatic activities.” Sabodan was the author of numerous research papers on theology, the majority of which were included in the six-volume edition of his works published in 1997–1998.

Sabodan enjoyed singing and collected recordings of Ukrainian folk songs as well as stamps and postcards.
