Abstract
The article provides a concise interdisciplinary analysis of several normative legal acts adopted in 2024 by federal executive authorities of Russia and other state bodies, which are set to take eff ect in 2024. These acts pertain to the regulation of the legal status of foreign citizens and stateless persons, as well as the application of relevant migration legislation. The analysis encompasses both subordinate normative legal acts adopted by bodies of general competence (the President of the Russian Federation, the Government of the Russian Federation, the General Procuratorate of the Russian Federation) and bodies of special competence — federal executive authorities (the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation). These normative legal acts were examined not only from the perspective of legal dogma, but also in relation to the political, economic, and social context of their adoption, including consideration of the events that transpired in 2024. In particular, the article undertakes a thorough examination of the normative legal acts of the President of the Russian Federation. It specifies the categories of persons who have the right to apply for admission to citizenship of the Russian Federation in a simplified procedure. Furthermore, it defines the concept of “repatriate” in relation to the State program to assist voluntary resettlement of compatriots living abroad to the Russian Federation. The present study examines the recent normative legal acts of the Government of the Russian Federation, including those pertaining to modifi cations in the regulations governing migration registration. The present study also analyzes the recently enacted normative legal acts of the Government of the Russian Federation, with specifi c reference to alterations in regulations concerning migration registration. It also encompasses an experimental evaluation of the rules and conditions pertaining to the entry and exit of foreign citizens and stateless persons into and out of the Russian Federation. Moreover, consideration is given to the various departmental normative legal acts (orders) issued by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation and the General Procuratorate of the Russian Federation. The analysis conducted indicates that these normative legal acts are intended to enhance the Russian legislation, establish novel eff ective legal mechanisms to address existing gaps and alleviate emerging social tensions.
