Zakhar Alexivich Kreskov (Volkian: Захар Алексивич Кресков; born May 31, 1956) is a Volkian politician and attorney who served as the 19th president of Volkia from 2009 to 2017. A member of the Social Democratic Union, he previously served as the Governor of Osinsky Oblast from 1999 to 2007 and as a People's Deputy from 1991 to 1999.
Kreskov was born in Koshki, Osinsky Oblast, making him the first president from the oblast. He is also the first former Governor of Osinsky Oblast to become president. Kreskov graduated from Osinsky Federal University in 1978 and entered Volkgoroda Law School the following year. He graduated in 1982 and became a constitutional law attorney and academic, teaching at Petrovskoye School of Law from 1985 to 1991. Kreskov would go on to represent Osinsky Oblast's 1st District in the Chamber of Deputies from 1991 to 1999, when he ran for governor. In 2007, Kreskov briefly stepped away from politics following his two terms as Governor and continued teaching at Petrovskoye. In 2008 he was nominated for president, and in October 2008 was handily elected with 57.76% of the first round vote and was inaugurated January 14, 2009 alongside running mate Andrei Borovsky. In 2012 Kreskov was re-elected with 61.21% of the first round vote.
Kreskov's presidency has generally been regarded favorably, and evaluations by historians, political scientists, and the general public place him in the mid to upper tier of Volkian presidents. Kreskov left office in January 2017 and currently resides in Koshki with his wife.
