Decree of the President of Russia

Short description: Russian legal act

Decree of the President of Russia on 9 September 2022

A Decree of the President of the Russian Federation (Russian: Указ Президента Российской Федерации, romanized: Ukaz Prezidenta Rossiyskoy Federatsii) or Executive Order (Decree) of the President of Russia[1][2] is a legal act with the status of a by-law made by the President of Russia.

Decrees and orders of the President of the Russian Federation are binding on the entire territory of Russia. They must not contradict the Constitution of the Russian Federation, federal constitutional laws and federal laws.[3] Decrees and orders have the highest legal force after the Constitution of the Russian Federation and federal laws, and are subordinate legal acts.

The acts of the President of the Russian Federation are subject to official publication within 10 days after the date of their signing.[4]

Acts of the President of the Russian Federation, which have a normative character, enter into force simultaneously throughout the territory of the state after seven days from the date of their first official publication. Other acts of the President, including acts containing information constituting a state secret or confidential information, come into force from the date of their signing.[4] The act itself may establish a different procedure for its entry into force. The letter "c" or the letter "cc" is added to the number of the decree containing the state secret, depending on the classification of the secrecy of the information contained in the decree.

By decree, the President of Russia has the right to suspend the operation of acts of the executive authorities of the subjects of Russia in the event that these acts contradict the Constitution of Russia, federal constitutional laws and federal laws, international obligations of the Russian Federation, or violations of human and civil rights and freedoms.[5]

In the Collection of Legislation of the Russian Federation, acts of the President of Russia are published in the third section. At the same time, regulatory decrees are posted first, followed by non—normative orders.

## History

In 1992 and 1993 a constant war between President Yeltsin and the Russian parliament became known as "war of laws" when presidential decrees issued by president Yeltsin were overturned by separate legislation adopted by the parliament. The war reached its peak in October 1993 when Yeltsin ordered to shoot the parliament building. Following the referendum of 1993 which resulted in the enacting of new constitution, many decrees issued by Yeltsin, a process which was shrinking as the legislative vacuum filled-in by enacting of various laws thus limiting the range of presidential discretion.[6]
