Ivan Alexeyevich Susloparov (Russian: ???? ?????????? ???????´???; the surname is often transcribed in the French manner, Sousloparov) (19 October 1897 – 16 December 1974) was a Soviet general who served as the Military Liaison Mission Commander with the French government and the Allied Expeditionary Force in Europe in 1944–45.
He is mostly known as the person who signed for the Soviet Union the German Instrument of Surrender on May 7, 1945.
