Text1. The Russian Federation
The Russian Federation occupies a vast territory in Eurasia. Russia has an extensive coastline along the Arctic and the Pacific Oceans, as well as the Baltic, the Black and the Caspian seas. The country has approximately one-quarter of the world's unfrozen fresh water reserves. The Volga is the longest river. The major lakes are Lake Baikal, Lake Ladoga and Lake Onega. Lake Baikal is the world's deepest and purest freshwater lake. Russia has the world's largest forest reserves. That’s why the country is sometimes called “the lungs” of Europe. Mount Elbrus is the highest mountain peak in Russia. Russia has the largest natural gas reserves, the second largest coal reserves and the eighth largest oil reserves in the world. It is the world's leading natural gas exporter and the second leading oil exporter. Oil, natural gas, metals, and timber account for more than 80% of Russian export. Moscow is the capital of Russia, its political, economic, commercial and cultural centre. The population of the city is more than 10 million people. Saint Petersburg is Russia's second-largest city after Moscow, with a population of more than 6. 2million people. It is an important Russian port on the Baltic Sea and has a status of a federal subject. The population of the Russian Federation is over 144 ml people. The country is a multi-ethnic society; it has 160 different ethnic groups. However, Russian is the only official language, though the Constitution gives the federal subjects the right to make their native language co-official. The flag of the country is the white-blue-red banner. The coat of arms is the two-headed eagle; the national anthem is “Russia, the Holy Land”. According to the Constitution of Russia, the country is a federation and semi-presidential republic, wherein the President is the head of state and the Prime Minister is the head of government. The Russian Federation is fundamentally structured as a multi-party representative democracy with the federal government composed of three branches – legislative, executive and Judiciaary. The President is the Supreme Commander-in Chief of the Armed Forces; he can veto legislative bills before they become law, and he appoints the government of Russia. The president is elected by popular vote for a six-year period and is eligible for a second term. According to the Constitution, the country comprises eighty-five federal subjects, including the Republic of the Crimea and the federal city of Sevastopol. All subjects have equal representation—two delegates each—in the Federation Council. However, they differ in the degree of autonomy they enjoy. Federal subjects are grouped into eight federal districts administered by envoys. Envoys are responsible for overseeing the compliance of the federal laws. Legislative power is represented by the Federal Assembly. It is made up of the State Duma ( lower chamber ) and the Federation Council ( upper chamber ). The bicameral Federal Assembly of Russia, made up of the 450-member State Duma and the 166-member Federation Council, adopts federal laws, declares war, approves treaties, and has the power of impeachment of the President. The leading political parties of Russia are the United Russia, the Communist Party, A Just Russia and the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia. Executive power is exercised by the Government. The Prime Minister is the head of the Government. The current Russian government is made up of the Prime Minister, two first deputy prime ministers, seven deputy prime ministers and 17 ministers. Most ministries and federal services report directly to the Prime Minister, who in his turn reports to the President. Judicial power belongs to the system of courts. The Constitutional Court, the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court of Arbitration and lower federal courts, whose judges are appointed by the Federation Council on the recommendation of the President, interpret and overturn laws they deem unconstitutional. Being one of the permanent members of the UN Security Council, Russia plays a major role in maintaining international peace and security. Russia is a member of OSCE and APEC and other international and regional organisations.
