Politics and law
Under the 1993 Constitution, Russia is a presidential republic. The head of state is the president. He is directly elected by the people for six years and can rule for two terms in a row. The president has a lot of power. He appoints the prime minister, is commander in chief of the armed forces and determines foreign and security policy. In 2000 W. Putin was elected President. After two terms as president, he was not allowed to run again in the 2008 elections. D. Medvedev took over his office. Putin was re-elected president in 2012. In this context, the term of office was extended from four to six years. Putin was also elected in 2018.
Russia is divided into 85 federal subjects. These are partial republics, regions, areas or cities with a special status. You have extensive rights of self-government, but you are not allowed to break away from the Russian Federation.
The parliament consists of two chambers, the Federation Council and the Duma. The Federation Council is made up of representatives of the various federal subjects. The Duma is composed of representatives of the political parties. It is elected by the people every five years. The largest party in the Duma is the United Russia party. The main tasks of the Duma are passing laws and approving the state budget. For the legislative proposals to come into force, they must be signed by the President.
There are restrictions on freedom of expression, the press and freedom of assembly. The police repeatedly arrested anti-regime protesters who had called for demonstrations on the orders of the government. When the Chechen Republic wanted to break away from the Russian Federation in 1991, the government intervened militarily. The North Caucasus is often the scene of terrorist attacks. In 2004, North Caucasian terrorists took 1,100 children and adults hostage in a school in Beslan (North Ossetia, South Russia). When they were liberated, around 350 children and young people died.
Russia has great influence in the neighboring countries that were part of the Soviet Union. The government tries to prevent these states from supporting NATO and other Western organizations. The Russian government believes that close ties between neighboring countries and the EU and the USA pose a threat. Russia has been involved in several conflicts in the border areas, particularly in the Caucasus. In doing so, it tries to nip independence aspirations in the bud and to consolidate its power on the national borders. In 2008 Russia recognized the independence of the Georgian republic of Abkhazia, despite international protests. In 2014 Russia annexed the Ukrainian peninsula of Crimea. The incorporation of Crimea into the Russian Federation worsened relations with the European Union, the USA and Canada. They imposed economic sanctions on Russia.

In Russia there is compulsory schooling for nine years. The children start school when they are six or seven years old and then attend primary school for three to four years. The subsequent main level lasts five years. At the end of the 9th grade, the young people have to take a final exam and can then begin vocational training. But you can also attend the two-year upper school and at the end of the 11th grade take the nationally standardized Abitur examination. It is a prerequisite for attending a university or academy. There are over 1100 universities in Russia. Around half of them are state universities. Lomonosov University in Moscow and St. Petersburg State University enjoy great recognition.
