The article is devoted to the problem of restricting human rights in the Russian Federation. It says that in any state a similar mechanism is provided, this is primarily necessary to protect the rights and legitimate interests of other citizens, protect society and the state. The article provides a classification of restrictions on rights for several reasons, discusses the features of restriction of rights, grounds for restrictions, entities authorized to restrict rights. Considering the types of rights that are not subject to restriction, the authors analyze the right to life. By international legal acts this right is recognized as absolute. The Constitution of the Russian Federation provides for the possibility of the use of the death penalty, and at the same time, a moratorium is imposed on its implementation. The authors conclude that as long as a moratorium on the death penalty has been imposed, it can be considered absolute. In conclusion, it is noted that restricting the rights of citizens is the most important function of the state. It is necessary to distinguish between a commensurate restriction and a disproportionate one, i.e. infringement. The authors note that to date, the grounds and procedure for restricting human rights in the Russian Federation comply with international standards in this area.
