The vice president of the Russian Federation (Russian: Вице-президент Российской Федерации, romanized: Vitse-prezident Rossiyskoy Federatsii) was a political office in Russia which existed from 1991 to 1993. The vice president was the first in the Russian presidential line of succession, becoming the new president of Russia upon the death, resignation, or removal of the president. Additionally, the vice president would assume the presidential duties in case the president becomes incapable of carrying out the presidential duties.
Prior to 25 December 1991, the office was titled vice president of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (Russian: Вице-президент РСФСР, romanized: Vitse-prezident RSFSR).
