Emanuel or Emmanuel Ionovich Kviring (Russian: Эммануил Ионович Квиринг; Ukrainian: Емануіл Йонович Квірінг; 13 September 1888[1] – 26 November 1937)[2] was a Soviet politician and statesman of Volga-German descent.

Born into a German family in Friesenthal, in the Samara Governorate of the Russian Empire (present-day Novolipovka [ru], Sovetsky District, Saratov Oblast), he became a socialist activist and politician (Socialist-Revolutionary Party from 1906 to 1912, and the Bolshevik Party beginning in 1912).

He was an opponent of the policy of Ukrainization, so he had to leave Kharkov for Moscow.

In 1956, Kviring was posthumously rehabilitated by a decision of the USSR Supreme Court.
