Sergei Ivanovich Syrtsov (Russian: Серге́й Ива́нович Сырцо́в; Moscow, Russian Empire, 17 July [O.S. 5 July] 1893, Slavgorod, Yekaterinoslav Governorate – Moscow, 10 September 1937, Moscow) was a Soviet-Russian politician. He was of Russian ethnicity and joined the Bolshevik Party in 1913. Syrtsov succeeded Alexei Rykov as the Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars of the Russian SFSR, a position he held from 1929 to 1930. He was dismissed from this position as a result of the so-called Syrtsov-Lominadze affair ("Left-Right bloc").
