Biography

Irek Yalalov was born in Ufa on 27 January 1961 to an ethnic Bashkir family. He is married and has two children.

Yalalov became acting Mayor of Ufa in 2011 and took over the position on a permanent basis in 2012. As Mayor, he was praised for an improvement in some infrastructure, improving the condition of the city's most notable park, helping increase investments in the city and introducing bike lanes on roads. However, he was criticised for failing to ensure snow was removed from roads (and simultaneously arguing against the use of studded tires arguing they asphalt concrete), poor responses to flooding, the closing of most trolleybus routes due to a lack of funding and not engaging with grassroots activists.

On 29 September 2018, Yalalov was appointed member of the Federation Council from his republic by the State Assembly.

Yalalov is a member of the ruling United Russia party. Following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, he was placed on the United Kingdom's sanction list.
