When checking in at the Kyiv airport, tell the luggage to be checked in to Madrid. The baggage claim airport will be indicated on the baggage receipt. After receiving your baggage receipt, you can check the baggage claim.

The author of the question just does not need to check in luggage to Madrid.

If the questioner does not need luggage in Madrid, then what is the question about? With a single ticket for all flight segments, baggage is checked in to the default destination. This is a well known general rule.
I have seen an exception to this rule exclusively on flights to Australia with a stopover in Singapore. Did the questioner fly on a similar flight?

So it's not exactly like that.
It is in Madrid that there are subtleties. If you arrive at one terminal and depart from another, I don’t remember the name to which you need to go by train, then you need to collect your luggage and go with it to the departure terminal.
You need to find out at check-in when you will check in your luggage.

And yet, the "widely known rule" does not work, for example, in Ukraine and in Russia. If you transfer in Moscow to a domestic flight, which is issued with the same ticket, then you are forced to receive luggage and then check it in again. It's the same in Boryspil, at least for foreigners.

Well, actually, as far as I know, the "well-known rule" is valid on international flights, and not on domestic ones, that is, if you are flying Ukraine-Spain-Spain, then you need to collect luggage in Spain, i.e. Madrid, and then go to local airline terminals.
the same is true in Russia and Ukraine and other countries. You have arrived in another country and are leaving the transit zone, because then you will already be moving within this country and must go through passport and customs control.
As for Singapore and Australia, I can assume that tickets were purchased for different segments of the flight separately, or some segment was purchased at a significant discount or low-cost, or departures from different airports in one country.
from experience: Kyiv-Rome-Olbia (I pick up luggage in Rome)
Kyiv-Vienna-Montreal (or Ottawa)-Vancouver in Montreal or in Ottawa I pick up luggage. Kyiv-Paris-Seattle-San Francisco (or other cities) in Seattle I pick up my suitcase.
Although, again, if this is a charter program or just refueling (we had this: paris-santo domingo-punta cana), then naturally you don’t need to pick up luggage. check with your airline, it will definitely be for sure.

It is also valid on domestic flights, where you can physically move within the transit zone. For example, in Paris, when arriving from Ukraine and then when transferring to a domestic flight, if from the same terminal, then you need to pick up your luggage at the end point.
An example from my most recent experience - Kyiv-Warsaw-Krakow - passport control in Warsaw, baggage pick up in Krakow.
It is more likely due to the design of the airport. Madrid is just a very unsuccessful airport for transfers.
Why did they make this stand-alone terminal in Madrid, which the devil knows how to get to - this is a question for the Spaniards. Although with their natural inclination to do everything in the style of "and so it will do", there is nothing surprising.
