Iurie Roşca (b. 31 October 1961 in Teleneşti) is a Moldovan politician who has served as president of the Christian-Democratic People's Party (PPCD) since 1994.

In 1984 he graduated from the journalism faculty of the State University of Moldova. He then worked as a correspondent for the newspaper Tinerimea Moldovei (The Youth of Moldova), a reporter for the National Television of Moldova, and an upper-level curator at the Dimitrie Cantemir Literature Museum in Chişinău. In 1989 he was one of the founders of the Popular Front of Moldova (of which the PPCD is a successor), an organisation whose executive president he was between 1989 and 1994. Since 1994 he has been a deputy in the Parliament of the Republic of Moldova, and since 2005 he has been the Parliament's vice-president (a post he also held from 1998 to 2000). He signed as Vice President of the Moldovan Parliament a bilateral agreement in June 2007 with the International Parliament for Safety and Peace (see [1]).
