Changing the federal government job titles

[edit]

In December 2010 Russian President Dmitry Medvedev signed a law that forbade calling heads of subjects of the Russian Federation as presidents. Regions must bring their constitutions or statutes in conformity with the law adopted before January 1, 2015.[6]

On 27 February 2014, deputies of the Kurultay in the third and final reading approved amendments to the local Constitution, which proposed to rename the post of "president" to "head of the Republic of Bashkortostan" ("bashlygy" in the local language).

The changes took effect on 1 January 2015.

There is an opinion that the change of title was unconstitutional.[7][8]
