On Some Problems of Resolving “Conflicts” Between the Provisions of the Constitution of the RF and Decisions of the European Court of Human Rights

The Article analyzes the problems of resolving contradictions between provisions of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The Author concludes that it is unconditionally necessary to enforce the decisions of the European Court of Human Rights. The Author provides concrete examples to show that a potential conflict between the provisions of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the Convention for the protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms is illusory, since the norms enshrined in the Russian Constitution are not inconsistent with the Provisions of the Convention on Human Rights. The Author proposes a mechanism for resolving these contradictions by means of introducing the institution of reviewing the Russian Constitutional Court resolutions in connection with final judgments passed by the European Court of Human Rights. The Author concludes that it is inadmissible for the Constitutional Court to consider the issues connected with cases on constitutionality of the judgments of the European Court on Human Rights because this contradicts international law.
