Alexander Vladimirovich Iltyakov (ru|Александр Владимирович Ильтяков; born 9 October 1971, Kurgan, Kurgan Oblast) is a Russian political figure and a deputy of 6th, 7th, and 8th State Dumas. In 2008, he was awarded a Doctor of Sciences in Technical Sciences.[1]

In 1995, he, together with his brothers, founded the "Veles" meat processing plant. From 1995 to 2011, he worked as an executive director of the plant. In June 2011, Iltyakov presented to Vladimir Putin a business plan on how to develop meat production in the Ural region. The plan was later included in the All-Russia People's Front's program. The same year, Iltyakov was elected as a deputy of the 6th State Duma from the Kurgan Oblast constituency. In 2016 and 2021, he was re-elected for the 7th and 8th State Dumas respectively.[1] [2] [3]

In November 2024, Iltyakov, commenting on the draft Strategy of Action for the Implementation of Family and Demographic Policy, Support for Large Families in Russia, called on Russian women to have children: “While the birthing machine is working, do what the earth tells you to do.” He later explained that by “birthing machine” he meant the eggs and uterus.[4] Later, in an interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda radio, Iltyakov called those women who want to decide for themselves when to give birth “stuffed animals”.[5] [6]
