Alexandr Nesterovschi (born 11 January 1981) is a Moldovan politician who serves as a Member of the Moldovan Parliament since 2014.[1][2]

Nesterovschi was sentenced on 19 March 2025 to 12 years in prison. He did not attend the hearing. He was charged with passive corruption; he accepted funds from Moldovan fugitive oligarch Ilan Shor to found a political party. On the same day, Russian media announced that Nesterovschi had received Russian citizenship, for which he expressed gratitude in a statement to RIA Novosti.[3] According to Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS) parliament member Lilian Carp, Nesterovschi escaped either to the Russian embassy [ro; ru] or to the Russian-backed unrecognized breakaway region of Transnistria.[4]
