Glávnyj Universáĺnyj Magazín literally "main universal store") With the façade extending for 242 m. along the eastern side of Red Square, the Upper Trading Rows (GUM) were built between 1890 and 1893 by Alexander Pomerantsev (responsible for architecture) and Vladimir Shukhov (responsible for engineering). The trapezoidal building features a combination of elements of Russian medieval architecture and a steel framework and glass roof, a similar style to the great 19th-century railway stations of London. William Craft Brumfield described the GUM building as "a tribute both to Shukhov's design and to the technical proficiency of Russian architecture toward the end of the 19th century”. The glass-roofed design made the building unique at the time of construction. The roof, the diameter of which is 14 m., looks light, but it is a firm construction made of more than 50,000 metal pods (about 819 short tons (743 t), capable of supporting snowfall accumulation.

  • Government's Viewpoint
    APPENDIX: GOVERNMENT’S VIEWPOINT The following appendix does not form part of ECRI's analysis and proposals concerning the situation in the Russian Federation ECRI, in accordance with its country monitoring procedure, engaged in confidential dialogue with the authorities of the Russian Federation on a first draft of the report. A number of the authorities’ comments were taken on board and integrated into the report’s final version (which only takes into account developments up until 22 June 2018, date of the examination of the first draft). The authorities also requested that the following viewpoint be reproduced as an appendix to the report. Unofficial translation Comments of the Russian Federation on the Final Report of the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance Following the Visit to the Russian Federation (February 5-9, 2018) Competent authorities of the Russian Federation have thoroughly studied the preliminary draft report by the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) following the visit to Russia within the fifth monitoring cycle on February 7-9, 2018. We would like, first of all, to provide the following general considerations. We note that the statistical data provided in the preliminary draft report, as well as assessments of the Russian public policy and legal regulation of public relations in the field of countering extremist activities, is based on a subjective approach to the use of information published by unofficial sources without due regard for official government statistics and is also taken out of context. Before ECRI's visit to Russia, the authorities of the country had informed ECRI's Secretariat of the non-recognition of the Commission's powers in the field of protecting LGBT rights and had stressed that this issue is beyond the Commission's mandate.

As is customary, we present annual reports on challenges in the realization of the rights to freedom of conscience and the principle of state secularism, and on overuse and misuse of anti-extremism laws. Since 2017, instead of a single, large report on radical nationalism, hate crimes, and the efforts by the state and the society to counteract these phenomena, this collection comprises two reports: the first one concerns hate crimes and counteraction to them, the second one covers other aspects of anti-extremism policies. The reports in this collection are updated versions of the original reports published on the SOVA Center’s website. The appendix provides details and statistics on the hate crimes and the prosecution of “extremist crimes”. All data were compiled on February 19, 2021.
