Petru Chiril Lucinschi (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈpetru kiˈril luˈt͡ʃinski]; born 27 January 1940) was Moldova's second President (1997–2001).
Petru Chiril Lucinschi (Russian: Пётр Кири́ллович Лучи́нский, Pyotr Kirillovich Luchinsky; Ukrainian: Петро́ Кири́лович Лучи́нський, Petro Kyrylovych Luchynsky) was born on 27 January 1940 in Rădulenii Vechi village, Soroca County, Romania (now Floreşti district). He has a PhD in Philosophy (1977) from the Russian Academy of Sciences.
From 1971, Lucinschi was a member of the Executive Committee (Politburo) of the Central Committee of the Communist Party in Moldavian SSR. He was the only native Moldovan in the leadership of Communist Party of Moldova at that time, when the leadership of Moldavian SSR was almost completely in the hands of people from outside the republic or Transnistrians.
From 1978 to 1989, he was first secretary of Chişinău branch of the Communist Party of Moldova. In 1978, Ivan Bodiul sent him to work for the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in Moscow, where Lucinschi remained until 1986. From 1986 to 1989, Lucinschi was second secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Tajikistan. Upon his return to Moldavian SSR in 1989, he became first secretary of the Communist Party of Moldova.
