States of emergency in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus. A comparative legal study

Summary/Abstract: States of emergency in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus. A comparative legal study The following paper analyses the legal regulations concerning states of emergency in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus. Based on the dogmatic and comparative legal methods, it discusses the constitutional and statutory foundations for the introduction of martial law and states of emergency in both countries. The article highlights the concentration of powers in the hands of the Presidents, the broad range of measures restricting individual rights, and the potential for abuse of these institutions within authoritarian regimes. It reveals a high degree of similarity between the relevant regulations in both countries. This indicates that, although formally separate, the regulations governing states of emergency in Russia and Belarus reflect close coordination in the field of security policy.
