 | | Likewise, Tatarstan's constitution asserts that the republic is "associated with" (assotsiirovana s) Russia, while the treaty uses the term "united with" (ob'edinenna s) and the Russian constitution describes the republic as "part of" (v sostave) the federation and identifies Tatarstan as one of Russia's 21 republics. | | | Entitled "On the Delimitation of Jurisdictional Authority and the Mutual Delegation of Powers Between the State Bodies of the Russian Federation and State Bodies of the Republic of Tatarstan, the treaty was signed by presidents Yeltsin and Shaimiev and by prime ministers Chernomyrdin and Sabirov on February 15, 1994. | | | Article 1 asserted that "state sovereignty is an inalienable attribute of the Republic of Tatarstan," while Article 59 stated that the laws of the Republic "are supreme over all its territory if they do not contradict the international obligations" of the republic. |

| | The first World Congress of Tatars was held in the republic's capital, Kazan', in June 1992. | | | After the changes of the immediate post-Soviet years, twenty-one nationality-based republics existed in the Russian Federation and were recognized in the constitution of 1993 (see table 10, Appendix). | | | In 1992 both the Kabardins and the Balkars opted to establish separate republics within the Russian Federation, using an ethnic boundary established in 1863, but the incumbent parliament of the republic declared the separation unlawful. |

| | Foreign mass media: Tatarstan's Treaty with Russia... |
| | Unquestionably, after the signing of the treaty on February 15, 1994, Tatarstan is supposed to be governed by three legal documents: (1) the Constitution of the Russian Federation; (2.) the Constitution of the Republic of Tatarstan, and (3) the Treaty of February 15, 1994. | | | This development also denied the two autonomous states the constitutional right of secession from the USSR, since they were now surrounded by the Russian territory. | | | In Kazan, President Shaimiev's government declared that the Tatar laws have assumed priority over the Russian laws; old laws remained applicable, but were to be abrogated or amended in the light of changed circumstances. |

| | Besides, some of the republics had already elected their own presidents and had adopted their own constitutions even before the new Russian constitution was adopted. | | | The case of Georgia, the newly independent Trans caucasian republic that was engulfed for years in a bloody civil war, exemplifies the problems that arise in an emerging sovereign country trying to assert its territorial integrity in the face of ethnic minorities' self-determination claims. | | | Chechnya's president, Dzhokhar Dudaev, was elected in October 1991 on a platform of sovereignty for the Chechen republic. |

| | General practice in the republics outside of Russia was that the head of state in a republic was a local official while the party general secretary was from outside the republic. | | | In addition, liberalization led to fractures within the party hierarchy which reduced Soviet control over the republics. | | | The republics then all became independent states, with the post-Soviet governments in most cases consisting largely of the government personnel of the former Soviet republics. |
