Abstract

The article examines the content of the amendments adopted to the Constitution of the Russian Federation in terms of the relationship between the provisions of international treaties and constitutional norms. Based on the use of a retrospective research method, it is noted that the position reflected in the constitutional amendments is largely the result of the activities of national authorities on the consistent implementation of the provisions of the European Convention on Human Rights into the national legal system, built on the basis of a dialogue with the bodies of the Council of Europe. Such interaction has been established and has been actively developing since the entry of the Russian Federation into this international organization. Over the past few years, this cooperation has developed in the context of the exercise by the Constitutional Court of the authority to resolve the issue of the possibility of executing the decisions of the ECHR. The key aspects of a theoretical nature that contributed to the formation of a position regarding the conditions for the implementation of decisions of interstate bodies on the protection of human rights and freedoms in the Russian legal system are studied step by step. The key importance of the aspect of conventionally constitutional conflicts of interpretation, which is reflected in the amendments to the Constitution, is noted.
