Andrey Manoylov

Andrey Panteleyevich Manoylov (Russian: Манойлов, Андрей Пантелеевич;15 October 1945 – 14 September 1995) was a Transnistrian politician, who served as the Acting Chairman of the unrecognized Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (PMR) from 29 August to 1 October 1991 in place of imprisoned Igor Smirnov.[1][2]

Originally a driver, Manoylov took active part in the formation of the opposition "work collectives" during the standoff between local Transnistrian authorities and the central government of the Moldavian SSR in 1989-1990. He was an elected member of the Presidium of the United Work Collective Council until 1991, when he became Chairman of the State Control Committee of the PMR.[1]

Manoylov died in 1995. A number of streets in Transnistria and a customs control post in Dubăsari were named after him.[1][2]
