The People's Patriotic Union of Russia (NPSR; Russian: Народно-патриотический союз России, romanized: Narodno-patrioticheskiy soyuz Rossii) was a political association in Russia, created on August 7, 1996 by political parties and public organizations that supported Gennady Zyuganov in the presidential elections.
In 2003, there was a conflict between the NPSR and the CPRF, and after 2004 the NPSR practically lost its political significance.
