Curiously, while he's wearing an updated parade cap (presumably a special kind just for the Cossacks, given the colors), he's wearing a traditional Soviet, rather than Russian, parade belt.

What does a traditional Russian parade belt look like? What host do you think this Cossack is from? I'm putting my money on Ural...

In any case, it looks like he's the same form of yellow-parade dress belt worn by officers (with a brass buckle with the Soviet emblem on it). The one the Russian Federation adopted is different--the same color, but the buckle emblem is the Czarist double-headed eagle. I'm trying to find a picture of it, no luck thusfar.

Yes, it is so called "cossack" of Russian Federation.
I use words "so called" because these "cossacks" have no in common with cossacks of Russian Empire and Stalin's Red Army cossack corps... |
