THE STATE SYSTEM OF RUSSIA
The Russian Federative Republic was set up by the Constitution of 1993. Under the Constitution Russia is “a democratic federal rule-of-law state with the republican form of government”.
State power in Russia is carried out by dividing power into three independent branches: legislative, executive and judicial. They are independent and each of them is balanced by the President.
The Legislative power belongs to the Federal Assembly. It consists of two chambers. The upper chamber is the Federation Council. The lower chamber is the State Duma. Each chamber is headed by the Speaker. The members of the Federal Assembly are elected by popular vote for a four year period.
The Executive power belongs to the central and local governments. The head is the Prime Minister, or the Chairman of the Government. The first action of him on appointment is to form the Cabinet.
The Judicial power is represented by the Constitutional Court, the Supreme Court and district courts.
The President of the Russian Federation is the head of state. He is elected for a term of four years. The President appoints the Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation, chairs the meetings of the government. He nominates to the State Duma a candidate for an appointment to the post of the Chairman of the Central Bank, presents to the Federation Council candidates for the posts of the Constitutional and Supreme Court justices, the post of Prosecutor General. The President forms and heads the Security Council. He is the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Russian armed forces. He has the right to dissolve the State Duma, to take a decision about the resignation of the Government of the Russian Federation, to announce elections ahead of time and to pass the decision to conduct a referendum on federal issues. The powers of the Russian President are terminated in the event of his resignation, bad health or impeachment.
