The present paper provides an insight into modern Russian politi- cal discourse and offers the analysis of 16 speeches delivered by Russian Presi- dents to the Federal Assembly. An attempt has been made to demonstrate that there exists a tripartite connection between language, political ideologies and cultural values. The analysis of the discourse allows to single out principle con- cepts and key words which embody cultural and ideological values, as they are embedded in the texts. Theoretical assumptions on power distance and the de- gree of individualism/collectivism in the modern Russia are illustrated with in- stances of discourse.
