Konstantin Muratovich Dzhioev (Russian: Константин Муратович Джиоев) is an Ossetian politician from the partially recognized Republic of South Ossetia who briefly served as the acting Prime Minister in 2026.
Early life
[edit]Dzhioev was born on May 6, 1989, in Tskhinval, then part of the Soviet Union, and attended the Golitsyno Border Institute of the FSB of the Russian Federation.[1] Starting on June 23, 2011, he has held various positions within the State Security Committee (KGB) of South Ossetia.[1]
Political career
[edit]On April 16, 2024, Dzhioev was named the First Deputy head of the Administration of President Alan Gagloev at the recommendation of then Prime Minister Konstantin Dzhussoev despite having no prior political experience.[1][2] On January 21, 2026, Gagloev sacked Dzhussoev in the midst of a corruption scandal, replacing him with Dzambolat Tadtayev.[3] In the same decree Dzhioev was released from the Presidential Administration to instead be named the First Deputy Prime Minister.[3]
On 8 June, at the behest of Gagloev, who intends to replace him with his North Ossetian Presidential Advisor on Russian Integration, Marat Kambolov, Tadtayev would resign, with Dzhioev being named the acting Prime Minister until Kambolov can take the role.[4] Dzhioev would serve just 9 days, the shortest tenure in South Ossetia's history beating Boris Chochiev's 66 days, as Kambolov would be voted in as Prime Minister on June 16.[5]
Caretaker government
[edit]Although Tadtayev's government would resign alongside him, President Gagloev had his ministers continue to serve in an acting capacity through Dzhioev's government and into Kambolov's until the later appoints his own ministers.
Personal life
[edit]Dzhioev is married and has three children.[1] Dzhioev is fluent in three languages: Ossetian, Russian, and English.[1]
