Summary/Abstract: The article analyses the recent approach of the Russian Constitutional Court towards execution of judgments of the European Court of Human Rights, with special focus on its most recent jurisprudence, including the 2017 verdict related to the case of OAO Neftyanaya Kompaniya Yukos v. Russia. Subsequently, it discusses whether such an approach is yet another example of “judicial dialogue” between domestic and international courts, or whether it is of more specific character, aiming at undermining the general authority of the ECHR.
