| | Politics of Russia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Politics of Russia (the Russian Federation) takes place in a framework of a federal presidential republic, whereby the President of Russia is both head of state and head of government, and of a pluriform multi-party system. | | | Russia's legislative body was established by the constitution approved in the December 1993 referendum. | | | Because Russia's new constitution remained in dispute in the Federal Assembly at the time of ratification, the Federation Treaty and provisions based on the treaty were incorporated as amendments to the 1978 constitution. |

| | Yukos founder and CEO Mikhail Khodorkovsky had made little secret of his political pretensions and Russian President Vladmir Putin acted swiftly and brutally to quash his would-be rival by levying over $30 billion in back taxes. | | | This would help ensure that United Russia wins both the majority in the Duma and the presidency. | | | The appointment of the two officials was also believed to reflect Putinâs preference for who might succeed him as president. |

| | Workers World: Market Politics in Russia |
| | The election in Russia has shown once again that the political form of bourgeois democracy--or at least its image, if not its essence--remains useful in advancing the predatory aims of monopoly capital. | | | The day after the election, Yeltsin fired Defense Minister Pavel Grachev, who had taken responsibility for the unpopular war in Chechnya, and appointed Lebed as his national security adviser. | | | The day after the runoff election in Russia, those who voted for Yeltsin will wake up to find out they were deceived--on the war in Chechnya, on jobs and wages, on inflation. |

| | The political uncertainties were underscored in August 1999, when President Yeltsin fired his Prime Minister, Sergei Stapashin, the fourth time he had done so in fifteen months. | | | Politics in Russia is still focused on the trouble with the economy and the legislative elections held in December 1999 and the presidential ones scheduled 2000. | | | New elections are scheduled for March, and as of this writing (January 2000), Putin has few rivals that could seriously challenge his now-anticipated victory. |

| | Several prominent members of United Russia, which controls two-thirds of the seats in the Duma, or lower house of parliament, complained that administrative pressure on business is hurting the investment climate and that the courts are far from independent. | | | They also said United Russia is moving to form "liberal" groups in the party, apparently setting up some ideological competition within United Russia. | | | The suspected purpose of this loosening is to head off the opposition in the 2007 parliamentary elections, and to mollify Russians who wondered where the Duma was when the government botched social benefits. |

| | Failed presidential candidate and former Security Chief in YeltsinÕs government (fired in October 1996) Aleksander Lebed created a new political party, the Russian PeopleÕs Republican Party which he claimed had 10,000 members, a figure few took seriously. | | | YeltsinÕs health had seemed fine during his admittedly stage-managed first ballot presidential election campaign. | | | Yeltsin did little to help the public image on this front when he named his 37 year-old daughter, Tatiana Dyachenko to be a presidential advisor. |
