Vasily Lvovich Velichko (Russian: Васи́лий Льво́вич Вели́чко; 14 July 1860, in Priluki, Poltava Governorate, Russian Empire (now Pryluky, Poltava Oblast, Ukraine) – 13 January 1904, in Saint Petersburg) was a Russian Imperial politician, who served in the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Empire. He was also a poet, playwright and publicist, one of the leaders of Russian Assembly,^[1][2] and editor of the semi-official Kavkaz gazette.

Known as a Russian chauvinist,^[3] he demonstrated blatant intolerance to the Armenian people^[4][5] and tried to set them on other populations in the Caucasus. He was active during the period when the Imperial Russian authorities carried out a purposeful anti-Armenian policy.

According to the Russian historian Victor Schnirelmann, "it is curious that his works were re-published in Azerbaijan in the early 1990s and received wide popularity there".^[6] Velichko's "forgotten racist tract" was reissued by Ziya Bunyadov's academy.^[7]
