On April 5, 2016, Russian citizens were surprised to learn that another federal security agency would soon appear in the country - the National Guard. It was on this day that the corresponding decree of President Putin was signed, and bills regulating the activities of the new structure were sent to the State Duma. The number of people in the new department can reach 400 thousand people.

This decision turned out to be like thunder from a cloudless sky; it was so unexpected that it caused bewilderment among experts and the public. Even more questions are raised by the capabilities and powers of the new service, which can easily be called unprecedented. According to the presidential decree, the National Guard of the Russian Federation will perform a number of functions within the country, and it will be personally subordinate to Putin. The new power structure will be commanded by one of the people most loyal to the president - Army General Zolotov.

Ideas about creating a Russian national guard were voiced back in the early 90s of the last century. Later they returned to the discussion more than once, but things did not go beyond conversations. And suddenly, without any information campaign, without public discussion, even without rumors and stuffing, a decision is made that completely reformats the power bloc of the state.

Structures like the Russian National Guard are the product of periods of political instability, unrest and revolutionary hard times. It would have been much more logical for the National Guard to appear in the 90s, during a time of chronic lack of money, separatism, social protests and the Caucasian wars. Why is it needed today, when Putin’s ratings are sky-high, and his political opponents are demoralized and incapable of anything serious?

Opponents of the current Russian regime have already managed to dub the structure being created a new oprichnina, drawing parallels with the era of Ivan the Terrible, after which Russia fell into the Time of Troubles for a long time.

A little about the history of the National Guard

The word “guard” is of Italian origin, it translates as “security, guard.” The Guard was the name given to military units staffed by the best, selected fighters. As a rule, the guard was not part of the army. At different times and among different peoples, the functions of the guards differed. They were often entrusted with the task of protecting the first person of the state (the Praetorian guard in Rome) from conspiracies and assassination attempts. The guard often performed police functions and took part in suppressing riots and uprisings.

The term "national guard" arose at the end of the 18th century in revolutionary France, along with the emergence of the first nation state. The French guards were ideological supporters of the revolution and were engaged in suppressing protests and riots against the new government, ensuring public order in the streets. They often performed punitive functions. It was the National Guard that took part in the bloody suppression of the Vendée rebellion. It should be noted that the French National Guard was not particularly reliable; it supported one or another political force. In the end, the French dispersed these restless troops.

Today, many states have paramilitary forces called the national guard, or structures with other names, but performing approximately the same tasks. Such troops can be divided into two types: “European” and “American”. The main task performed by the European-style National Guard is to protect the constitutional order and public order. In fact, these are the internal troops that are well known to us.

The main task of the American National Guard is to work with the mobilization reserve in the event of a major war and general mobilization. At the same time, American guardsmen are involved in eliminating the consequences of natural disasters (Hurricane Katrina) and resisting large-scale street riots.

The US National Guard is staffed only by volunteers; they serve in parallel with their main work. For this, guardsmen have many bonuses and benefits from the government. US National Guardsmen have taken part in combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, although reviews of their effectiveness and professionalism on the battlefield are highly controversial.

The US National Guard has dual subordination: the federal government and state authorities. For the federal center, the guards are the primary military reserve that will be used during mobilization.

In most CIS countries (and earlier in the USSR), the protection of the constitutional order and order on the streets is carried out by internal troops, recruited on a conscription basis.

Separately, it should be said about the paramilitary structures that bore the name “national guard”, but at the same time performed very specific tasks. As an example, we can cite some paramilitary forces in Latin and South America.

The National Guard of Nicaragua consisted of professional mercenaries and participated in the civil war that had been going on in this country for many years. In essence, it performed the functions of an army and waged a long-term counter-guerrilla war.

The National Guard of El Salvador has also been active in the turbulent political life of this Latin American country. She participated in many coups d'etat and revolutions, fought partisans, and persecuted citizens for political reasons. It was in the National Guard that the famous “death squads” were organized, which kidnapped and killed representatives of left-wing movements.

Venezuela also has its own national guard. In addition to dispersing demonstrations, guardsmen have recently begun to be called upon to perform more specific tasks: they are fighting shortages and rising prices. To do this, troops occupy shops and storm factories.

The main task of the Saudi National Guard is to protect the monarch and members of the royal family. In Azerbaijan and Kyrgyzstan, the main function of the national guards is to protect institutions and top officials of the country.

The National Guard of Ukraine appeared in 1991, but then this structure was abolished. The second birth of the Ukrainian guard occurred in 2014. Today it includes both former units of internal troops performing purely security functions, and volunteer battalions taking part in hostilities in the Donbass.

The SS and the IRGC as the progenitors of the Russian National Guard

Separately, it is worth mentioning two military formations, one of which still exists today, and the second was declared criminal during the Nuremberg Tribunal - these are the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the SS security detachments created back in Nazi Germany.

The IRGC is an elite military unit created immediately after the 1979 revolution. Officially, this structure is part of the Iranian armed forces, but in fact it has its own commander-in-chief and reports directly to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

The Corps has its own armed forces, which include ground forces, aviation, naval forces and special operations units capable of operating outside the country.

The IRGC took an active part in the war in Iraq, and currently units of the Corps are fighting on the side of Bashar al-Assad against rebels in the Syrian conflict. IRGC fighters are considered among the most combat-ready in the Iranian army.

In addition to participating in hostilities, the Corps is engaged in ensuring internal security, fighting “subversive elements” within the country, and ensuring the promotion of the ideas of Islam outside Iran. Corps members maintain public order and protect important government facilities.

The Corps trains the Basij militia, a paramilitary force that performs a variety of functions. The number of this formation is 10 million people.

The leadership of the IRGC pays great attention to the ideological training of its fighters, as well as disseminating its ideas among the country's population. The Corps owns the media (TV channels, newspapers, radio stations).

SS security units appeared in Germany in 1933. They were originally created to protect members of the Nazi Party and its Fuhrer Adolf Hitler.

In 1940, the SS (Waffen-SS) troops appeared, reporting directly to Heinrich Himmler. The SS units were only part of the German army, but in reality they were a paramilitary unit of the Nazi Party.

The SS also included units that provided security for concentration camps and participated in the mass extermination of people.

The SS controlled almost all operational, investigative and intelligence activities of the Third Reich through the Security Service (SD) and the Reich Security Main Office (RSHA).

In addition, the SS guarded the entire top leadership of Nazi Germany and was involved in scientific projects and ideology. Gradually, the SS turned from a security structure into the main personnel reserve of Nazi Germany.

Rosgvardia - the national guard of Russia

The Russian National Guard is formed on the basis of the current internal troops, as well as special units of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, such as SOBR, OMON, TsSN SOR. The National Guard will also include private security of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The main functions of the Russian National Guard:

  • public order protection;
  • fight against terrorism, extremism and organized crime;
  • control of weapons circulation in the country;
  • security of government facilities and cargo;
  • provision of security services to individuals and legal entities, as well as control of the security services market.

The National Guard of the Russian Federation is classified as special services. The staffing of this structure is mixed: both by contract and by conscription.

The National Guard has the right to make arrests, enter homes and conduct searches.

If we talk about what the Russian National Guard is like, then more than other options it resembles the police units of Latin America. Without a doubt, the functions of the National Guard, prescribed in the presidential decree, exceed the capabilities of classical internal troops.

There are certain similarities between the Russian National Guard and the Iranian IRGC and Hitler's SS, but there are also significant differences. The main one is: the two above-mentioned foreign structures were (and are), first of all, bearers of a certain ideology.

The SS was not only a paramilitary organization, it actively supplied its personnel to the state apparatus of Hitler's Germany and, thanks to this, governed the country in the interests of the Nazi Party.

The Iranian Guard Corps also cannot be called a structure that performs purely security or military functions; it is the bearer of the ideology of the Iranian revolution and has a strong influence on the life of the state.

It is not yet completely clear what exactly the Russian National Guard will look like. It is unclear whether she will receive the right to engage in operational investigative activities, but something suggests that she will be granted such a right (albeit not immediately).

We would venture to assume that this will be the president’s personal army, with the help of which the head of state hopes to ensure the loyalty of the Russian elite.

Why was the Russian National Guard created?

Why did the authorities initiate the creation of the National Guard right now? There are several hypotheses.

According to the first of them, Putin is so frightened by the possibility of a color revolution scenario being realized in Russia that he decided to take the lead and create a structure that is capable of suppressing any rebellion. Indeed, the standard of living in the country is falling, this applies to both the capital and the regions. The experience of the protests on Bolotnaya Square at the beginning of 2012 showed that protest potential exists in Russia. True, a lot has changed since those events, but the hypothetical danger remains.

Today, the authorities have several tens of thousands of SOBR and OMON soldiers at their disposal, and this may not be enough even to suppress serious unrest in the capital. In 2012, they had to be urgently transported to Moscow by various means of transport.

For inspection and detention, guards will not need a prosecutor's sanction or a court decision. Only then can they inform the prosecutor “at the discretion of their supervisor.” It is unknown whether such a provision will remain in the bill, but no Russian federal law enforcement agency has such powers.

However, such a hypothesis raises skepticism. Despite the economic turmoil, there has been no increase in protest activity in Russia. Society is split, deafened by propaganda, and has no leaders. In such a situation, any unrest can be easily dealt with using the power tools available.

Some experts suggest that Putin is creating a personal army (about 400 thousand people) to ensure that a palace coup is avoided.

The events of recent years, Western sanctions, and the policy of self-isolation cannot but irritate part of the Russian elite. And any color revolution always begins with a split in the elites, and the Ukrainian Maidan is a clear confirmation of this.

Whether such a paramilitary structure will be effective in this case is a moot point. Historical experience has shown that the Guard often stands aside during mutiny or takes part in it. The guards units did not lift a finger to save the last Russian Emperor Nicholas II.

Another interesting theory that explains the need to create a national guard was put forward by Novaya Gazeta journalists. In their opinion, the national guard is, first of all, a blow to the head of the Chechen Republic, Ramzan Kadyrov. Allegedly, in this way the federal center is trying to wrest from the hands of the willful regional leader his main trump card - paramilitary structures, which are nominally part of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, but are personally subordinate to Kadyrov.

According to Russian journalists, after the Chechen battalions join the National Guard, they will no longer be so loyal to the Chechen leader, but will be controlled by the federal center. This theory sounds rather naive: Chechen units are still part of the Russian security forces today, but in fact they are subordinate only to Kadyrov. The East, as you know, is a delicate matter. And the Caucasus is no exception.

Formally, Chechen units may be subordinate to the new commander-in-chief, but in essence everything will remain the same. In addition, Zolotov has excellent personal relations with Ramzan Akhmatovich (unlike many other federal security officials), so issues of interaction will most likely be resolved on a personal level.

The current transformation, which began with a presidential decree, could seriously upset the established balance between Russian security agencies. The Ministry of Internal Affairs will suffer the most, as it will lose some of its structures and significant financial flows.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is deprived of special units (SOBR, OMON), private security and control over the circulation of weapons are taken away from it. This is a serious blow. True, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will now include the Federal Drug Control Service and the Federal Migration Service - but this is an unequal replacement.

In addition, the lack of rapid response units and riot police can seriously complicate the work of the police; fighters from these units are often used to apprehend criminals or other operations. If they are subordinate to another department, this will seriously complicate the life of police officers.

It is too early to assess the new power structure. It takes several years to carry out such a reform.
