Izet Rustemovych Hdanov (Ukrainian: Iзет Рустемович Гданов) (born 16 September 1983, in Fergana, Uzbek SSR), is a Ukrainian politician and activist[1] of Crimean Tatar ethnicity born to deported Crimean Tatars in the Soviet Uzbekistan.

In 2006 Hdanov graduated from the National Academy of the State Tax Service of Ukraine.[2] In 2009–2011 he served as a deputy minister in the Crimean Government.[2] In 2012 Hdanov suffered an assassination attempt when two unknown younger people hit him on the head with a hammer.[2]
