As soon as the New Year of 2020 passed, the political situation in Russia changed, and Medvedev led a group of people from his government to resign en masse. Shortly thereafter, Russia's new prime minister, Mishustin, took office. Since then, the fate of Medvedev has received attention from the outside world, and some people have even concluded that the best combination of Mepp has ended, has Medvedev been abandoned by Putin? and so on, and has been speculated by the world's major media. But soon Medvedev's new post came, as "Vice-Chairman of the Russian Federal State Council", an appointment that also broke the speculation outside the box.

Some time ago, I introduced the situation of Medvedev, but Medvedev is the "Vice Chairman of the Russian Federal National Security Council", what kind of body is this Russian National Security Council?

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Russian political system changed, and although Russia inherited most of the mantle of the Soviet Union, the Soviet system has been overthrown, and many institutional functions have changed. Some institutions were inherited by Russia. For example, the Russian Federal Security Service, this agency is actually the Soviet intelligence agency KGB. Although the size of the Russian Federal Security Service has decreased, its functions have not changed.

In the SOVIET UNION, there was also a "State Security Council", but unlike the Russian Federal State Security Council. During the Soviet era, the State Security Council evolved from the "All-Russian Purge Committee" established in 1917. During the Soviet period, it was called "Cheka". In 1954, the Cheka was renamed the "National Security Council of the USSR", which is the world-famous KGB that made great contributions during the Cold War.

It can be seen that the "National Security Council" of the USSR was the main department of the USSR in foreign intelligence, counter-espionage, internal security and border protection. Although the KGB was an intelligence secret service, it was a super-department at the time, unchecked by other departments and only at the highest levels of the Soviet Union.

In October 1991, before the collapse of the Soviet Union, Gorbachev ordered the abolition of the Ussring State Security Council. Only this institution was abolished, but the Soviet intelligence and security services also transitioned to Russia, albeit in numbers. After Russia's independence, in order to emulate the Western state system, the National Security Council of the Russian Federation was re-established, with the President as the chairman, including the Prime Minister, the Director of the Federal Security Service, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, the Minister of Internal Affairs, the Minister of Defense, the Chief of the General Staff, the Minister of Emergency Situations, etc.

According to the available information, the Russian National Security Council is a power coordination body, which is mainly responsible for deliberating important state and social security matters and formulating national security policies.

Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia has made more reference to the Western system of state politics, especially Russia's first constitution, which Was formulated by Yeltsin with Experts from the United States. Therefore, Russia's national security council has certain similarities with the United States in terms of setting.

Let's first look at the duties of the US National Security Council, and perhaps we can find the composition of the Russian Federal National Security Council. The National Security Council is not a U.S. decision-making body, and the NSC cannot formulate relevant policies. It is the organizational structure of the overall planning, coordination and counsel of the PRESIDENT in security policy. The U.S. National Security Service needs to work closely with the Secretary of State to help the President develop a long-term security policy and provide the President with an effective military plan.

Since the establishment of the NATIONAL SECURITY Council in the United States, the PRESIDENT of the United States has attached great importance to this organization, and when the United States encounters a major event or an important crisis, the National Security Council will convene a meeting to study and discuss countermeasures.

The U.S. National Security Council is chaired by the President, while the Russian Federal Security Council is also chaired by Putin, and its members include the Vice President, the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Finance, the Director of Emergency Preparedness, the Director of the CIA, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Assistant for National Security Affairs.

The NSA's day-to-day work is overseen by the National Security Assistant, but the Russian Federal Security Council does not have such a setup. The National Security Adviser of the United States, also known as the National Security Adviser, is directly appointed by the president and approved by Congress. Different presidents of the United States have different roles for national security advisers. For example, when Trump was president, the role of national security adviser was not obvious.

At present, who handles the daily work of the Russian Federal Security Council is not clearly stated. Medvedev only serves as a deputy, and it is not excluded that the daily work will be coordinated by Medvedev. Before the Belarusian election, Medvedev spoke out, which shows his position in the Russian National Security Council.

At present, the role of the Russian Federal State Council is not much reported and information in Russia. Because after the revision of the Russian Constitution, Putin's role has not diminished. Of course, most of the affairs studied by the National Security Council are national strategic security decisions, but there are also regional security affairs. This is Russia's state secret.

However, after the resignation of Kazakh President Nazarbayev, he served as the chairman of kazakhstan's national security council. At that time, the outside world thought that Putin would refer to the model of Kazakhstan in the future. However, after the revision of the Russian Constitution, President Putin is expected to be in power until 2036, so how Russia's national security will function and adjust in the future is still unknown. But as long as Putin is president, the NSC will operate according to the current mechanism.

It is difficult to say what the Russian national security will be in the future, if Putin leaves office, his health is still good, and he may also be the chairman of the national security council, after all, Russia already knows that the United States will still dismember Russia, know the bottom card, the goal and task of the Russian national security council, the West is the primary target.
