Awards and decorations received by Leonid Brezhnev

The following is a full list of awards and decorations of Leonid Brezhnev, Soviet General Secretary and statesman, sorted into two sections; foreign and domestic.

Domestic
Brezhnev's receipt of the Order of Victory was controversial; the award was restricted to commanding officers of high rank who successfully changed the course of the war in favor of the Red Army during World War II. Brezhnev was a young political officer during the war who did reach the rank of lieutenant general, but did not command responsibility close to the other recipients of the Order. He only received the decoration after he was Premier and thus able to essentially award the medal to himself. As a result of the controversy, the Order of Victory was revoked in 1989.

Honorary Citizen

 * Kyiv: Honorary Citizen of Kyiv
 * Dnipropetrovsk: Honorary Citizen of Dnipropetrovsk

The Kyiv City Council stripped the title (granted in 1982) of "Honorary Citizen of the City of Kyiv" from Brezhnev on 25 May 2023. The Dnipro City Council (Dnipropetrovsk was renamed to its current name Dnipro in 2016 ) stripped the title (granted in 1979) of "Honorary Citizen of the City of Dnipropetrovsk/Dnipro" from Brezhnev on 20 December 2023. They both stated they did so in accordance with Ukrainian decommunization laws.
