The Grand Palace of the Kremlin is about to host the inauguration of the
Russian president, with the meticulously prepared ceremony set to take place on May 7.
In accordance with the Russian legislation, the procedure of inauguration of the Russian president takes place after six years from the day when the predecessor took office. In case of re-elections and early elections, the elected president assumes his duties on the thirtieth day after the country's Central Election Commission officially announces the general results of the presidential elections in Russia.
The event has been taking place since 1991, when
Boris Yeltsin, the first president of the Russian Federation, was inaugurated in Kremlin's Palace of Congresses. The inauguration script was originally developed back then. Since 2000, the inauguration has been held in the ceremonial halls of the Grand Kremlin Palace: St. Andrew's, Alexander's and St. George's halls.
The ceremony is attended by members of the government, deputies of the upper and lower houses of Russia's Federal Assembly, the Federation Council and State Duma, heads of the presidential administration, judges of the country's Constitutional Court, the diplomatic corps and others.
During the inauguration of a newly elected head of state, the symbols of presidential power - the standard and the badge of the President of Russia - are used, as well as a special copy of the Russian Constitution, usually kept in the presidential library, on which the president takes the oath of office.
