In July 2002, he was appointed vice-governor of St. Petersburg - head of the office of the city administration, replacing Yuri Antonov. In the media, the person who held this post was called the "chancellor." According to observers, this appointment was a compromise between the governor of the city, Vladimir Yakovlev, and the plenipotentiary representative of the President of the Russian Federation in the Northwestern Federal District (NWFD), Viktor Cherkesov. It was also alleged that Sergei Sviridov, deputy plenipotentiary representative for personnel, petitioned for Beglov's nomination.

In October 2005, Beglov joined the Council under the President of the Russian Federation for the implementation of priority national projects and demographic policy, and in July 2006 he became a member of the Council's Presidium. In December 2005, speaking at a meeting with the heads of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation that are part of the Urals Federal District, Beglov said that the governors would be personally responsible for the implementation of priority projects. This caused disagreement among a number of regional leaders, in particular the heads of the Sverdlovsk and Kurgan regions - Eduard Rossel and Oleg Bogomolov. They complained to the presidential aide about the imperfection of control over the implementation of national projects and poor funding.

On May 7, 2008, the inauguration ceremony of Dmitry Medvedev as President of Russia, who was elected to this position in March of the same year, took place. On the same day, the new head of state, by his decree, instructed the employees of the presidential administration of the Russian Federation to temporarily perform their duties and submitted Putin's candidacy to the State Duma for approval by the country's prime minister. On May 8, 2008, at an extraordinary plenary meeting of the State Duma, deputies approved Putin as chairman of the Russian government. Medvedev signed the corresponding decree on the same day.

On May 12, 2008, Beglov was appointed deputy head of the presidential administration of Russia. The post of head of the administration was taken by former Deputy Prime Minister and head of the government apparatus Sergei Naryshkin.

Beglov is a real state adviser of the Russian Federation of the first class, a candidate of technical sciences, an honored builder of the Russian Federation.

early years

Alexander Dmitrievich Beglov was born on May 19, 1956. Also, like the previous governor of the northern capital, Georgy Poltavchenko, Beglov is a native of the city of Baku.


As a child, the future official dreamed of becoming a military sailor, but he did not study well at school and could not enter a specialized school. After graduating, Beglov graduated from a vocational school and an industrial-pedagogical technical school.


At the age of 20, Alexander Beglov joined the USSR Armed Forces for two years.

Education and work

In 1978, Alexander Beglov returned from the army and began studying industrial and civil engineering at the Leningrad Civil Engineering Institute, graduating in 1983.


In parallel with his studies, as well as the next two years, Beglov worked at a construction site. Starting with the work of a high-altitude fitter, he rose to the rank of head of the capital construction department No. 3 of the Main department of capital construction of the executive committee of the Leningrad City Council of People's Deputies. From 1986 to 1988, Beglov served as head of the department of construction and building materials industry at the executive committee of the Leningrad City Council, after which he was head of the sector of the socio-economic department of the Leningrad Regional Committee of the CPSU for a year.


From 1990 to 1991, Alexander Dmitrievich served as deputy head of the Capital Construction Department of the Executive Committee of the Leningrad City Council, for the next 6 years he was the chief engineer and co-owner of the Melazel joint venture with Germany. At that time, he was also a co-founder of three enterprises, a production and transport company, and the Business Partner publishing house.

In 1994, Beglov defended his thesis for the degree of candidate of technical sciences on the topic "Stability of reinforced concrete elements from the bending plane."


From 1997 to 1999 he was a senior researcher at the Department of Theoretical Mechanics of the St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering.

Beglov in politics

From 1999 to 2002, Alexander Beglov headed the administration of the Kurortny district of St. Petersburg, after which he took the place of vice-governor of St. Petersburg - head of the office of the administration of St. Petersburg. To improve the qualifications of a civil servant, he received a second higher education - legal - at the North-Western Academy of Public Administration (the current branch of the RANEPA), which he graduated in 2003.


On May 21, 2003, Beglov joined the ranks of members of the United Russia party, and three weeks later he was appointed secretary of the political council of the regional branch of the party (he held this position until July 2004). Then, after the transfer of the governor of St. Petersburg Vladimir Yakovlev to work in the Government of the Russian Federation, Alexander Beglov was appointed acting governor (until September 21, when the gubernatorial elections were held, which were won by Valentina Matvienko).


After that, Beglov was for some time the first deputy plenipotentiary of the President of the Russian Federation in the Northwestern Federal District, and after the appointment of Vladimir Putin for the second term of the presidency, Beglov became his assistant - the head of the Control Department of the President of the Russian Federation.

During the presidency of Dmitry Medvedev (2008-2012), Beglov served as Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration.

On May 23, 2012, the newly elected President of Russia Vladimir Putin appointed Alexander Beglov as his plenipotentiary in the Central Federal District. At the same time, the official defended his dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Technical Sciences on the topic "Management of the production of agricultural products in the Cossack communities as a potential for sustainable socio-economic development of the regions."


On December 25, 2017, Beglov became the plenipotentiary representative of the President of Russia in the Northwestern Federal District, in June of the following year he was reappointed to this post.

On October 3, 2018, Vladimir Putin dismissed the governor of St. Petersburg, Georgy Poltavchenko, from his post. Alexander Beglov was temporarily appointed in his place.

Vladimir Putin and Alexander Beglov

Family of Alexander Beglov

Little is known about Alexander Beglov's family members, and there is practically no information about his parents. Wife, Natalya Vladimirovna (born 1955), since 2004 she has been the chairman of the St. Petersburg Registry Office Committee.


The Beglovs raised three children, the eldest of whom, Yulia, was sometime head of the legal support department of the Committee for Culture of St. Petersburg. Daughter Olga was an assistant professor at the Faculty of Law at St. Petersburg State University. Beglov's son-in-law, Pavel Belov, heads the Committee for Physical Culture and Sports in Smolny.

Alexander Beglov now

Immediately after his departure from the post of governor, Georgy Poltavchenko advised Beglov to deal, first of all, with the problems of traffic and the heating season (5 thousand accidents occur on the networks of the northern capital a year). The new head of St. Petersburg will continue to design new highways and a high-speed train to Pulkovo airport.


Even those who were not too enthusiastic about this appointment speak of Beglov as a "strong business executive." He left the former team that worked with Poltavchenko in office, and together with her Beglov expects to improve the lives of the inhabitants of St. Petersburg.

However, in the very first winter, the acting governor did not pass the test of heavy snowfall - the snow-covered streets of St. Petersburg caused justified indignation of the townspeople.


Also, under Beglov, the May Day demonstration turned into mass detentions of procession participants - 68 people were detained in St. Petersburg.

Despite the lack of mass support, according to the results of the elections on September 8, 2019, Alexander Beglov won with 64% of the vote. Of his three opponents, two made it to the election - Vladimir Bortko, who ran with the support of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, withdrew his candidacy a week before the election. Turnout was 30%. Approximately 16% of the votes were received by his competitors - Mikhali Amosov and Nadezhda Tikhonova.
