Constitution Day is celebrated in Russia

The main law of Russia was adopted following a referendum, which was held on December 12 1993 year. First time in stories The country's Constitution has become a document of direct action, that is, anyone can protect their rights by referring to constitutional norms.

In 2009, the Basic Law was first amended. In accordance with them, the head of state is elected for six years instead of four, and deputies of the State Duma for five years. In addition, the Russian government is obliged to annually report to the deputies on their work.

This year, the significant date will be marked by an important event for the country - Russian President Vladimir Putin will announce a message in the Kremlin to the Federal Assembly. And only after that the traditional meeting of the head of state with the judges of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation will take place.

State Duma Speaker Sergey Naryshkin is convinced that the Constitution of 1993 of the year became the basis of the modern professional parliament: those constructions of representative democracy, which were the Congress of People’s Deputies of the USSR elected in 1993, and the RSFSR Congress of People’s Deputies in 70. ”

On the eve of the next anniversary of the Constitution, the question of the need to reform it has again been actively discussed, ITAR-TASS reported. Thus, the Communist Party leader Gennady Zyuganov at the International Parliamentary Forum called for a "overhaul" of the Basic Law in order to strengthen the role of parliament. The leader of the “Fair Russia” Sergey Mironov also spoke out for such a redistribution of powers of the authorities, who recalled that a law on the Constitutional Assembly is necessary for a serious amendment of the Constitution.

Constitution Day is celebrated in Russia

“Poll: More than 80% of Russians have never read the Constitution”

Moscow, December 11th. Russians have little knowledge of their Constitution. The number of those who consider it possible to improve it is approximately equal to the number of supporters of maintaining it unchanged. This is evidenced by a survey conducted by the All-Russian Center for the Study of Public Opinion (VTsIOM).
Most Russians have an idea of ​​the contents of the Constitution (77%): 18% have read this document, 59% are familiar with its provisions. Every fifth person does not know the main law of the country (22%). Supporters of non-parliamentary parties (38%), highly educated respondents (29%) often report that they personally read the Constitution. Russians with a low level of education (50%) are completely unaware of the provisions of the law.

I, too, enter these 80% percent, on our website, did anyone read it
In short, boys happy holiday

[crazyrom]

What is there to celebrate? The Constitution was written to us by the Americans and it does not allow Russia to be sovereign. That's when it will change to normal, we will celebrate. And so - it is mourning and not a holiday.

Russia celebrates Constitution Day, and I am my birthday! Somehow even patriotically develops.

And today is the anniversary of the entry of troops into Afghanistan.

YARY,
And today is the anniversary of the entry of troops into Afghanistan.

There are many of them - those who note not the withdrawal, but the deployment of troops. They are united by the Hero of the Union - Aushev. And their truth is stronger than the arguments about the need for a conclusion.

Congratulations to the peoples of Russia on Constitution Day ..

The constitution of any state should, in my opinion, undergo all kinds of amendments and additions as little as possible. That is why it is considered the Basic Law. Moreover, categorically against adjusting the Basic Law to anyone.

I was even embarrassed by such a fact-quote. In addition, the Russian government was obliged to report annually to the deputies about its work.

really it took 16 years to bring this norm into the Constitution, She initially had to be laid !!!

I welcome you Alexander !
if you draw a parallel between the constitutions of many states,then at the core, they coincide in many respects. Another thing is to be done somewhere, ignored somewhere, and wiped their feet somewhere. That's it.

Hello, mutual, but according to our constitution, the law is the same for everyone, but in reality? Constitutions may coincide, but the USSR Constitution was written by its own, not foreign

My principle is this- The law is the same for everyone !!! this applies to the highest officials of any state. I really do not know if the Law on distrust. I do not like the word impeachment. If there is something good, if not, then it is bad.

We still need to look very carefully at who created this constitution in 1993: how many American advisers and all sorts of other boerboels had the then Russian Government ...

nobody needs the holiday of the Yeltsin era.
90 percent of Russians will not even answer what day it is on the calendar.

Dear Yaroslav! If your statistical numbers are correct, then you can beat all the bells. All this indicates a low sense of justice. Citizens themselves should familiarize themselves with the laws of the country. There is plenty of good internet and literature at hand. Conclusion means that citizens are satisfied with this order of things. but it should not be.

quote to anyone unnecessary holiday of the Yeltsin era.
in my opinion an erroneous opinion, it is more likely not about a holiday or the Yeltsin era. It is about the Law, hence the neglect. I don’t like it, change it, by the Constitutional way.

Apollo, do not be offended, but the law (constitution) adopted after the de facto destruction of one of the branches of government cannot be taken seriously, hello to the shooting of the white house.
and what kind of legal consciousness can be discussed if historically in Russia there was strong faith only in God and the Tsar-priest.
Apollo, do not be offended, but you are operating in terms that you yourself did not fully understand, in Russia the concept of law is not identical to the generally accepted European norm.
For Russians, the law as a conscience does not take up much space due to rare use

Happy Constitution Day people of Russia !!! Let us at least today be patriots of our country, not priests and not believing in anything. Our constitution is an analogue of most constitutions, which set forth all the rights of citizens, with the predominance of the rights of the president. Zyuganov and Mironov are urged to amend the constitution and make it parliamentarian.

[desava]

I don’t know who, how, but I took the Oath of the new Russia. Back in 2001, it was already a respectable period for me. At the moment, in civilian life, but I'm sure that at the first call (mobile prescription or something similar) I will return. His country, despite the shortcomings that I see love. You can live with pride here - do not forget!

[Comrade1945]

You can live with pride here - do not forget!

You need to live here with pride
In a different way - a burden to both ourselves and the country ...

[iulai]

if all the articles of the constitution were still respected. I did not see anyone who celebrated this holiday.

[Comrade1945]

I would even say day crooked constitution ...

[maksim]

it’s not that constitution and that country, I was born in the USSR and proud of it, but M. Gorbachev to court !!!
