Agreement

Komi-Russia power-sharing treaty, 1996-2002

Komi signed a bilateral power-sharing treaty with Moscow granting it economic autonomy, later abolished as part of a nationwide rollback.

What happened

On 21 March 1996, the Komi Republic signed a power-sharing agreement with the government of Russia granting it autonomy, including in the economic management of the republic's oil, mineral and timber resources.[1]

The agreement was abolished on 20 May 2002, part of a broader pattern in which the great majority of the 46 Yeltsin-era power-sharing treaties with Russian federal subjects, signed between 1994 and 1998, were terminated between 2001 and 2002 following Vladimir Putin's 2000 election and his overhaul of the federal system.[2]
