Vsevolod Serafimovich Murakhovsky ( Russian: Всеволод Серафимович Мураховский; 20 October 1926 – 12 January 2017) was a Ukrainian-Soviet politician who served as first deputy premier during the leadership of Soviet general secretary Mikhail Gorbachev.
Early life and education
Murakhovsky hailed from a Ukrainian family. [1] He was born in a village, Holubivka, near Kreminna ( Luhansk Oblast), on 20 October 1926. [2] [3] He attended Stavropol Pedagogical Institute and graduated in 1954. [2]
Career
Murakhovsky served in the Soviet Army from 1944 to 1950. [1] In 1946, he joined the Communist Party. [2] Then he worked as a communist party officer in the Stavropol region from 1954 to 1985. [1] He was first secretary of the Stavropol Party gorkom in the period 1970-1974 and first secretary of the Karachai-Cherkessia Party obkom between 1975 and 1978. [4] He also served as the first secretary of the Stavropol Komsomol Committee. [5] [6] He replaced Mikhail Gorbachev as first secretary of party's regional committee when the latter was appointed to party's central committee secretariat in Moscow in 1978. [7] [8] In 1981, Murakhovsky became a full member of the party's central committee. [2]
Murakhovsky's term as first secretary of the Stavropol Komsomol Committee ended in November 1985 when he was appointed by Mikhail Gorbachev as one of the three first deputy premiers. [4] [1] [5] It was his first post in Soviet administration. [1] Murakhovsky was in charge of agriculture and related affairs [9] and was also appointed chairman of the state committee for the agro-industrial complex, Gosagroprom, which was abolished in 1989. [2] [10] The reason for its disestablishment was its proven inefficiency for which Gorbachev criticised Murakhovsky. [11] Murakhovsky's term also ended in 1989. [3] [12]
Death
Murakhovsky died on 12 January 2017, aged 90. [13] [14]
