Korotko Pro (Cyrillic: Коротко про), formerly KP in Ukraine (Ukrainian: КП в Україні; Russian: КП в Украине) is a Ukrainian newspaper published six times a week in Kyiv, the nation's capital. It is a Ukrainian language newspaper, with some regional editions in the Russian language.

In March 2009, the paper was awarded a "Newspaper of the Year 2008" award.

In order to comply with Ukrainian decommunization laws the newspaper changed its name from Komsomolskaya Pravda in Ukraine (Russian: Комсомольская правда в Украине; Ukrainian: Комсомольська правда в Україні) to KP, abbreviation from the publishing company Kepreyt Partners in January 2016. However, the newspaper stressed it was never a "mouthpiece" of the Komsomol, the youth wing of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

It is part of United Media Holding group, created by Boris Lozhkin and owned by Serhiy Kurchenko.

In 2018, the Institute of Mass Information and texty.org.ua analyzed the top 50 Ukrainian news sites to create a media rating of unreliability. KP in Ukraine was ranked 11th, with 81 reliable news items, 13 news items with unreliable sources of information, and 6 unreliable news items. Among these new, 10 had manipulative headlines, and 10 news used emotional manipulation. One fake news and one news item containing hate speech were also detected. At the same time, the parent publication Komsomolskaya Pravda took the first place in this anti-rating, with the largest number of fakes and news containing hate speech.

On 29 December 2023, it was announced that the newspaper would be called "Korotko Pro" starting in 2024.
