Aman Tuleyev
Amangeldy Gumirovich "Aman" Tuleyev (Russian: Амангельды (Аман) Гумирович Тулеев, Kazakh: Амангелді Молдағазыұлы Төлеев, Amangeldı Moldağazyūly Töleev; 13 May 1944 – 20 November 2023) was a Russian statesman. He served as governor of Kemerovo Oblast from 1997 to 2018 and was the chairman of the Council of People's Deputies of the Kemerovo Oblast briefly in 2018.
Tuleyev ran for President of Russia in 1991, 1996 (withdrawing during the campaign) and 2000, coming fourth in both 1991 and 2000.
Tuleyev was born to a Kazakh father and a half-Tatar half-Bashkir mother in Krasnovodsk, Turkmen SSR, USSR.[citation needed]
Early at his career, Tuleyev worked as a railway engineer.[citation needed] In 1964, he graduated from Tikhoretsky Railway Technical College with distinction.[citation needed] He then moved to Siberia, to be a railway clerk at the small railway settlement of Mundybash in the Kemerovo area, where he became a stationmaster in 1969.[citation needed] In 1973, he graduated from the Novosibirsk Institute of Engineers as a railway engineer specialized in communication.[citation needed] From 1973 to 1978 he was railway station chief in the town of Mezhdurechensk.[citation needed] From 1978 to 1985 he worked at Novokuznetsk Railway Station, first as an assistant, and then as the chief of the Novokuznetsk branch of the Kemerovo Railway.[citation needed] In 1985, Tuleyev was appointed head of the Department of Transport and Communication in Kemerovo and in 1989 he became head of the Kemerovo Railway System.[citation needed]
In 1990, he switched to politics and was elected to the Parliament of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR) from Kuzbas.[citation needed] In March 1990, Tuleyev was elected chairman of the Kemerovo Regional Soviet.[citation needed]
Tuleyev was a presidential candidate in the 1991 Russian presidential election. His running mate was Viktor Bocharov. At the time of his 1991 campaign, Tuleyev was regarded as a somewhat popular reformist. He was perceived at the time to be a left-wing populist.
Tuleyev aimed to siphon voters away from Boris Yeltsin in Eastern Russia. He particularly hoped to garner votes from miners, a demographic which had developed significant qualms with some of Yeltsin's recent actions in granting concessions to Gorbachev over the issue of Russia's natural resources. Yeltsin's campaign attempted to combat Tuleyev's efforts to court miners by accusing him of being a candidate of the Communist Party's machine masquerading as a "favorite son" of miners. Tuleyev also appealed to non-ethnically-Russian voters.
As a candidate, Tuleyev championed local autonomy, incremental economic reform and social defence. Tuleyev placed fourth in the election, receiving 5,417,464 votes (7% of the overall vote). He carried a 42% plurality of the Kemerovo Oblast's vote. However, his lead there was narrow enough that early returns had shown Yeltsin leading him there.
