Federal Assembly of Russia

The Federal Assembly of Russia is the country's national legislature, consisting of two chambers: the State Duma (lower house) and the Federation Council (upper house). It is responsible for making and passing federal laws, approving the budget, and overseeing government actions. The State Duma is elected by citizens and debates proposed laws, while the Federation Council represents regional governments, reviewing legislation and ratifying treaties. Together, they function as the legislative branch, balancing power and ensuring laws reflect both national and regional interests.
