During Boris Yeltin's presidency, he signed a total of 46 power-sharing treaties with Russia's various subjects<ref>{{cite book|title=Regional Politics in Russia|last=Ross|first=Cameron|publisher=Manchester University|year=2002|isbn=0-7190-5890-2|location=Manchester, United Kingdom|pages=9}}</ref> starting with Tatarstan on 15 February 1994 and ending with Moscow on 16 June 1998,<ref>{{cite book|title=The NEBI Yearbook 2001/2002: North European and Baltic Sea Integration|last1=Hedegaard|first1=Lars|last2=Lindström|first2=Bjarne|publisher=Springer|year=2002|isbn=978-3-642-07700-5|location=New York, United States|pages=307}}</ref> giving them greater autonomy from the federal government. According to Prime Minister [[Viktor Chernomyrdin]], the government intended to sign power-sharing agreements with all of Russia's 89 subjects.<ref name= "newsline3">{{cite web|url=https://www.rferl.org/a/1141182.html|title=Newsline - May 30, 1996 Rostov, Sakhalin Oblasts Sign Power-Sharing Agreements|date=1996-05-30|website=Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty|language=en|access-date=2019-05-02|archive-date=May 3, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190503023628/https://www.rferl.org/a/1141182.html|url-status=live}}</ref> Following the election of Vladimir Putin on 26 March 2000 and his subsequent overhaul of the federal system, the power-sharing treaties began to be abolished. The vast majority of treaties were terminated between 2001 and 2002 while others were forcibly annulled on 4 July 2003. Bashkortostan, Moscow, and Tatarstan's treaties expired on their own individual dates. On 24 July 2017, Tatarstan's power-sharing treaty expired, making it the last subject to lose its autonomy.<ref name= "moscow">{{cite news|url=https://themoscowtimes.com/articles/tatarstan-special-status-expires-58483|title=Tatarstan, the Last Region to Lose Its Special Status Under Putin|last=Smirnova|first=Lena|date=2017-07-24|work=The Moscow Times|access-date=2017-08-07|language=en|archive-date=December 29, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181229183213/https://themoscowtimes.com/articles/tatarstan-special-status-expires-58483|url-status=live}}</ref>
