Panas Petrovych Lyubchenko (Ukrainian: Панас Петрович Любченко; 14 January 1897 – 30 August 1937) was a Ukrainian and Soviet politician, who served as the Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars of Ukrainian SSR (today's equivalent of prime-minister) from 1934 to 1937.^[1]

Panas Lyubechenko was a member of the Ukrainian Central Council and the Central Committee elected by the 17th Congress of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks). He attended the Plenum of 23 February 1937.

In 1937, Lyubechenko shot his wife Maria Nikolaevna Krupenyk and then committed suicide after he was accused of treason by colluding with Ukrainian separatists who wished to detach Ukraine from the Soviet Union. Lyubechenko denied the allegations.
