Tatyana Nikolaevna Moskalkova has a very serious list of service achievements behind her shoulders. Her career has gone through an impressive ascent from an accountant and an ordinary lawyer to a deputy chair in the State Duma. And since 2016, she has become a ombudsman for human rights, which has earned herself immense popularity in political circles.
Among the latest achievements of 2018 by Tatyana Moskalkova is her appeal to the Turkish authorities with a proposal that baptized Christian children should not forcibly study Islam. She actively participates on the part of the Russian Federation in the pardon procedure for Konstantin Yaroshenko, who was arrested in the United States.
She is known for her sharp criticism of “purely male professions”, which discriminate against the free choice of Russian women. And her support for Leonid Slutsky in terms of harassment on his part, allegedly directed at three journalists accredited in the State Duma, aroused a new wave of interest from the “writing fraternity” to her person.
Biography and career of Tatyana Nikolaevna Moskalkova
On May 30, 1955, the future ombudsman was born in the family of a serviceman in Vitebsk (Belarus). In 1965, due to the death of her father, the family moved to Moscow, where Tanya graduated from high school and entered a law school. In this field, she subsequently defended her candidate (1997) and doctoral (2001) dissertations.
And Moskalkova began her working career in 1972 as an ordinary accountant at the law firm Inyurkollegia. Here she was able to rise to the rank of senior legal adviser. And then in her career ascent there was a ten-year period when Tatyana Nikolaevna served as a consultant for the pardon department in the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR.
From 1984 to 2007, a young and purposeful woman was engaged in professional activities as an employee of the legal department of the USSR Ministry of Internal Affairs. Here her career growth from an assistant to the deputy head of the department with the rank of Major General of Militia became that springboard in the service hierarchy, after which a political ascent followed.
The end of 2007 was marked by the transfer of Tatyana Nikolaevna Moskalkova from the ranks of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to the State Duma of the Russian Federation, where she was elected a deputy from the Just Russia faction. It was in the status of deputy head of the committee for CIS affairs and relations with Russians that she established herself as an advocate of loyalty to human rights and the postponement of the creation of a "repressive instrument" in the form of the Investigative Committee.
In the period up to 2016, Moskalkova took an active part in the creation of more than a hundred bills, among which the law, popularly christened as “Day in two, day in one and a half,” gained particular fame, in which a certain coefficient was spelled out that establishes the ratio between the content in the pre-trial detention center, general regime colony and settlement.
And since the spring of 2016, Tatyana Moskalkova began to occupy a key position in our country for the protection of human rights, replacing Ella Pamfilova. In this status, she has already managed to establish herself as a professional, clearly pursuing as her goal the creation of the necessary conditions for the protection of Russians within the framework of legal regulation. Everyone is well aware of her initiatives on the adoption of Russian children, the release of people with fatal diseases from prison, the procedure and rules for holding rallies and political actions.
