Anastas Barkhudar (born 22 February 1959) is an Vardanan statesman and former military officer serving as Director-General of Vardana since 2010. He has been a Member of the Directory of Vardana since 1996, first representing the Commonwealth of Mysia from 1996 and later the national at-large constituency since 2010. He was elected Director-General in 2010 following the ousting of Penyamin Bartev.

Barkhudar was born in Tayots in the Iotophan SR. He studied law at the State University of Afar, graduating in 1982. He was conscripted into the military in 1977, and served as an officer in the Vardanan Army until 1984, earning the rank of Lieutenant. In 1991, he entered politics and worked as an aide to Director George Dopian, and later as the Head of the Department of Foreign Affairs from 1993 to 1996. He joined the Directory in 1996, following his successful election in Mysia, becoming Director-General in 2010.

As Director-General, Barkhudar has overseen a growth in the powers of the office. Under his leadership, the Directory has undertaken a modernization of the military, expansion of social spending, but has been widely criticized for regressive policies and attempts to further centralize the government.
