The Chairwoman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet ({{wp|Russian language|Russian}}: Председатель Президиума Верховного Совета; {{wp|Romanization of Russian|tr.}} ''Pryedsyedatyel' Pryezidiuma Vyerhovnogo Sovyeta'') (Chairman when the office is occupied by a male) is the head of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet, the collective Presidency of the [[Soviet Union (TheodoresTomfooleries)|Soviet Union]]. Though not the sole member of the presidency, due to their office's importance of organizing the other 38 members, the Chairwoman is considered by non-Soviet sources to be "the President" of the USSR or the "Head of State of the Soviet Union". The post was established in 1938 after the introduction of the {{wp|1936 Constitution of the Soviet Union|1936 Soviet Constitution}}.
The Chairperson of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet ({{wp|Russian language|Russian}}: Председатель Президиума Верховного Совета; {{wp|Romanization of Russian|tr.}} '' Predsedatelʹ Prezidiuma Verxovnogo Soveta''), alternatively ''Chairman'' and often referred to as the '''President''' is the head of the [[Presidium of the Supreme Soviet (TheodoresTomfooleries)|Presidium of the Supreme Soviet]] which serves as the collective head of state of the Soviet Union. The Chairperson ultimately does not carry any authority separate from their other cabinet members, but as the leading member of the collective leadership they are often used as a representative of the entire Presidium.
