In the article, the author describes the National Guard of the Russian Federation as a new formation formed recently in connection with the changes of the Russian uniformed services. The aim of the article is to familiarize readers with the purpose, mission and tasks of the new formation. The author emphasizes that federal services, including the National Guard, operate independently of the Russian armed forces and are directly controlled by the president of the Russian Federation as internal forces. Now the National Guard is becoming the core element of such forces. The new formation has taking over the part of the tasks of internal forces, including part of mission of the special police departments, for instance OMON. The director of the new Federal Service is also the commander of the National Guard. This means that the current changes are creating a coherent internal security system, based on an alternative internal army.
