In 1990, large-scale rallies were held in Moscow, which attracted up to a million people. They demanded decisive changes in various spheres of life of the USSR, including political ones.

The peoples of the USSR demanded the right to national self-determination and economic freedom. By the summer of 1990, four union republics - Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Azerbaijan - had already adopted their own Declarations of Sovereignty. Twenty-two autonomous republics that were part of the RSFSR - from Tatarstan to the Jewish Autonomous Region - fought for equal political rights with the union republics and were also ready to recognize themselves as sovereign states. It is important to note that at that time neither the union nor the autonomous republics planned to secede from the USSR. They only wanted to get the opportunity to develop freely, taking into account their national and regional characteristics as part of a common union state.

On June 12, 1990, the First Congress of People's Deputies of the RSFSR adopted the Declaration of State Sovereignty of Russia. This document declared the priority of the Russian Constitution over union laws (many of which have long been outdated and have become a brake on social development), and also adopted a new name for the state - “Russian Federation”. The Declaration proclaimed the equality of all citizens of the Russian Federation, approved the right to use subsoil and resources, and to independently manage the economic sphere. It was also allowed to create independent political parties and public organizations.

A year after the adoption of the Declaration, on June 12, 1991, the first open popular presidential elections in the history of the Russian Federation were held. Boris Yeltsin won them.

Public holiday

Interestingly, June 12 was approved as a public holiday twice. This first happened in 1992 by decree of the Supreme Council of the Russian Federation, and it was then that this day became a non-working day. In 1994, a decree of President Boris Yeltsin fixed the solemn date as “The Day of Adoption of the Declaration of State Sovereignty of the Russian Federation.” After some time, for simplicity, they began to call it Independence Day.

But the new holiday was not widely popular among Russians for a long time. Many did not understand what its essence was and considered it just another day off. Some had a completely negative attitude towards him, considering him the cause of the collapse of the USSR (although, according to political scientists, this is an erroneous idea).

In 1998, Boris Yeltsin proposed celebrating June 12 as Russia Day. But the new name was officially adopted only in 2002 - after the release of the updated Labor Code regulating the dates of state celebrations.

Russia Day today

Nowadays, Russia Day is becoming increasingly popular as a holiday of national unity, patriotism and civil harmony. On this day, national flags are flown throughout the country. In the Kremlin, the President presents state awards and prizes to outstanding scientists, athletes and artists. On city streets and squares there are festivals, folk festivals and performances of creative groups.

In 2019, the holiday on June 12 falls on Wednesday. The holiday will be celebrated on the largest scale in Moscow. On this day, peaceful rallies and processions with national flags will be held in the city. Residents and guests of the capital will be able to visit the exhibition of military equipment and see a vibrant show with the reconstruction of important historical events in Russia.

Festival “Russia Day. Moscow Time" invites guests to sports competitions, performances, dances, creative and gastronomic master classes, which will be held throughout the city.

At VDNKh you will be able to try tea from a samovar and national dishes of different peoples of Russia, watch performances by folk groups, learn folk crafts and take pictures in a haystack.

A large-scale concert with the participation of Russian stars of the first magnitude will begin on Red Square at 19:00. The show will end at 22:00 with the performance of the Russian anthem and colorful fireworks. This year, fireworks will be launched at 16 sites in different areas of Moscow: on Red Square, at the Bolshoi Moskvoretsky Bridge, on Poklonnaya Hill, Vorobyovy Gory and other places. A total of 500 fireworks are planned to be launched.
