Abstract

The article is focused on the definition of legal personality of the President of Russia, in the aspect of the separation of powers. Scientific disputes about the place of the President of the Russian Federation in the system of separation of powers are considered, the concept of legal personality of the President of the Russian Federation is given, his powers are considered. It is concluded that the legal personality of the President of the Russian Federation is aimed at ensuring the legal personality of other subjects of legal relations. The need to guarantee the legal personality of all public authorities is manifested both in a sufficiently large amount of constitutional powers of the President of the Russian Federation, and in his close interaction with other public authorities, and first of all – the Executive one. It is not so much the scope of authority as the end result that is important. Therefore, the President of the Russian Federation, acting as a special coordinator in the system of separation of powers, is constitutionally obliged to function within the limits that allow the state mechanism to function effectively.
