Officially, Russia has a multi-party Presidential system with powers divided between Parliament (the Duma), the Prime Minister and the President. Also Russia constitutionally has an independent Judiciary branch.
In practice, things work somewhat differently. The Duma mostly is a rubber-stamp Parliament dominated by the Party that the President has set up for the purpose, and opposition parties -such as there are - are a small minority in Parliament, have a very hard time getting any exposure on television or otherwise and their candidates are often harrassed by the authorities. The judiciary theoretically is independent, but historically has for centuries - up to and including today - been no more than an instrument of the ruler: Tsar, Communist leader or President.
The real power today lies with the President, mr. Putin. Again in theory, he shares power with the Prime Minister. But in practice, mr. Putin has a cozy arrangement with his trusted ally mr. Metvedev who has been his Prime Minister for as long as mr. Putin has been President. In practice, mr. Metvedevs power can best be compared to that of the US vice-President: totally dependent on what the President allows him to do.
The President of Russia holds the most power in the country, with significant control over the government, military, and economy. The President, currently Vladimir Putin, has been in power since 2000.
The national government holds all the power in a unitary government, as opposed to a federal systems as seen in the United States where power is fragmented between the federal, state and local levels.
During the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Russia used its military power capabilities as leverage over Ukraine to assert its interests in the region. Additionally, Russia leveraged its energy resources, particularly natural gas exports to Europe, as a tool to exert diplomatic pressure. Ukraine, on the other hand, relied on international support and alliances, such as with the United States and NATO, to counterbalance Russia's military and economic power.
Political Power is the ability to control the behavior of others to attain the objectives of the organization. Is the behavior of one political actor and in this case the political actor is the top executive in an organization, the person and the power are inseparable
Russia has a semi-presidential republic system, where the President is the head of state and the Prime Minister is the head of government. The country has a multi-party system, but in practice, power is concentrated within the ruling party, United Russia.
In a democracy, the sovereign power lies with the people. Through processes like elections and referendums, the people have the authority to elect representatives, make decisions, and hold their leaders accountable. This principle is fundamental to the concept of democracy and serves as a check on government power.
