Revision of the document, taking into account
changes and additions prepared
JSC "Kodeks"

On March 31, the decree “On the Federal Agency for Nationalities Affairs” came into force, according to which new structure; its tasks include the development and implementation of the state national policy, the implementation of measures aimed at strengthening the unity of the multinational people of the Russian Federation (the Russian nation), ensuring interethnic harmony, ethno-cultural development of peoples, protecting the rights of national minorities and indigenous peoples, and much more. The federal agency should take over some of the functions that were previously under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Justice. It will be engaged in the development and implementation of programs in the field of interethnic relations, control over the implementation of state national policy, prevention of any form of discrimination based on race, nationality, religion or language, and prevention of attempts to incite discord, hatred or enmity. Is such a structure necessary in the Russian federal authorities?

Dmitry Oreshkin, political scientist:

- It is naive to believe that it is possible to solve the problems of interethnic relations by creating an appropriate department. Already created, and more than once. Did you manage to solve at least one problem? No, none. Departmental officials do not solve problems, at best they sweep them under the rug. Create the appearance of a solution. Not because officials are stupid or clumsy - it is impossible in a large multinational state to solve such serious issues by creating specialized departments. A departmental official can write progress reports, but he cannot turn the river back. We need a completely different approach - the real federalization of the country instead of fairy tales about federalism. It is necessary to understand that territorial and national problems are key to the existence of Russia as a state. And from year to year we observe the aggravation of interethnic problems.

Sergei Markov, political scientist:

- The fact that the Agency for Nationalities was recreated is correct. And it is important that it was Barinov who was entrusted to head the agency. An officer who fought in Chechnya, was a State Duma deputy. Patriot. Look who dealt with the national question before Barinov - they are all from North Caucasus. I have nothing against them, but in their posts they were engaged exclusively in the protection of national minorities, forgetting about the majority. Protecting minorities is also important, but it is even more important to protect the interests of the Russian majority. Unfortunately, today this is a real problem - especially in national regions. The interests of nations and nationalities are protected by national diasporas, but Russians in Russia do not and cannot have a diaspora. And the Russians find themselves in a humble state. And the tension from dissatisfaction with their position with the Russian ethnic majority spreads throughout the entire system of interethnic relations. I believe that Barinov will be able to turn the tide.

Konstantin KRYLOV, Chief Editor magazine "Issues of Nationalism":

- This will be another structure for protecting the interests of national minorities, which are already well protected. Our state has been stubbornly fighting corruption for many years, and the result is just the opposite. Better to let the state not get involved in national affairs. The state must withdraw from the sphere of interethnic relations. But before leaving, it must equalize the rights of the peoples - allow the Russians to create national-cultural autonomies, and so on. The government should deal with what we really have a lot of problems with - the economy, the social sphere, and so on.

Dmitry ORLOV, CEO Agencies of political and economic communications:

- The creation of the Federal Agency for Nationalities is a response to an obvious request to remove the conflict background. We observe everyday and more significant conflicts in a number of territories. Now the main task is to build a system to counteract these conflicts, which is what the federal agency will do. The request matured quite a long time ago both within society and in bureaucratic structures - almost immediately after the liquidation of the Ministry of Nationalities. Our country is multinational, there are current problems associated with ethnic violence. It is obvious that the migration department is not able to solve these problems.

The government submitted to the State Duma a draft law on changes in the legal regulation of certain issues of the civil service of the Russian Cossacks Order dated June 19, 2019 No. 1325-r. In accordance with the current legislation, the charter of the All-Russian Cossack Society, created by combining military Cossack societies, is approved by the President of Russia. At the same time, the procedure for appointing and dismissing the ataman of the All-Russian Cossack Society, the procedure for agreeing and approving the charters and chieftains of Cossack societies has not been legislatively defined. In order to eliminate gaps in the legal regulation of the civil service of the Russian Cossacks, the bill proposes to empower the President of Russia to determine the procedure for agreeing and approving the charters of Cossack societies, chieftains of military Cossack societies, appointing and dismissing the chieftain of the All-Russian Cossack Society. FADN Russia is proposed to give powers in terms of determining the procedure for approving atamans of Cossack societies (except military and all-Russian), created or operating within the territory on which another Cossack society operates.
