Petru Lucinschi was born on 27 January 1940 in Rădulenii Vechi village, Soroca County, Kingdom of Romania (now Florești district) into the family of Kirill Vasilievich Lucinschi.
Lucinschi carries a transcribed version of the Polish surname Łuczyński, but has never publicly identified with a Polish heritage.
In 1962, he graduated from Chisinau State University.
During his studies, he was the secretary of the local Komsomol.
From 1963 to 1964, he was engaged in Komsomol work in the Soviet Army.
In 1964, he was admitted to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.
He was friendly with Azerbaijani leader Heydar Aliyev, as they had worked together in the Soviet government and had been acquainted as leaders of their republics since 1970, when Lucinschi visited Baku.
Since leaving office, he has continued to meet with his former counterparts, including Azerbaijani leader Ilham Aliyev, Kazakh president Nursultan Nazarbayev, Estonian president Arnold Rüütel, and Ukrainian president Leonid Kravchuk.
Upon the death of former Russian president Boris Yeltsin, he described him as a politician who "paid a lot of attention to the national aspirations of countries of the USSR conglomerate", saying in addition that he "played an essential role for young independent states like Moldova".
From 1971, Lucinschi was a member of the Executive Committee (Politburo) of the Central Committee of the Communist Party in Moldavian SSR.
He was the only native Moldovan in the leadership of Communist Party of Moldova at that time, when the leadership of Moldavian SSR was almost completely in the hands of people from outside the republic or Transnistrians.
His appointment followed the civil unrest on 7 November during the 72nd anniversary celebrations of the Great October Socialist Revolution.
He has a PhD in Philosophy (1977) from the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow.
From 1978 to 1989, he was First Secretary of Chișinău City Committee of the Communist Party of Moldova.
In 1978, Ivan Bodiul sent him to work for the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in Moscow, where Lucinschi remained until 1986.
