Oleksandr Heorhiyovych Dombrovskyi (Ukrainian: Олександр Георгійович Домбровський; born 7 July 1962) is a Ukrainian politician. He served as a member of the Verkhovna Rada (the Ukrainian parliament) from Ukraine's 11th electoral district from 2012 to 2019,.[1] and as Governor of Vinnytsia Oblast previously from 2005 to 2010.

Early life

Dombrovskyi was born on 7 July 1962[2] in Kalynivka, which was then part of the Ukrainian SSR in the Soviet Union.[3] In 1979, he graduated from the Vinnytsia National Technical University within the Faculty of Automation and Telemechanics with honors.[3] He then entered into postgraduate studies, eventually receiving his PhD in economics from the university.[3]

After completing his studies, from 1990 to 1991 he was the head of the Department of Foreign Economic Research of the Vinnytsia City Center of the STTM.[3] Afterwards, he was the director of the foreign trade company "Center", and then in 1995 president of the JSC "Podilskyi Center for Business Cooperation".[3] Up until his election to mayor in 2002, he was the director of the second branch division of Pivdenmash (then known as Yuzhmash).[3]

Political career

In 2002–2005 Dombrovskyi was a mayor of Vinnytsia.[4]

In 2005–2010 he also served as a Governor of Vinnytsia Oblast.[4]

In the 2012 Ukrainian parliamentary election Dombrovskyi was elected to parliament as an independent candidate in constituency number 11 located in Vinnytsia Oblast[4] However, in February 2013, the Higher Administrative Court of Ukraine annulled his mandate, ruling that the 2012 election results for the single-mandate district no. 11 could not be reliably established due to irregularities after a lawsuit was filed by Yurii Karmazin.[5] As a result, CEC was ordered to hold a repeat election in the district.[5] In the 2014 Ukrainian parliamentary election he was reelected in the same constituency for Petro Poroshenko Bloc.[4] Dombrovskyi did not take part in the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election.[4]
