Correct  

"Executive privilege" refers to a privilege held by the EXECUTIVE branch of government.  The Supreme Court heads the judicial branch.  The President heads the executive branch.

The Constitution of the United States asserts (in Article II, Section 1): "The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America." The role of chief executive means that the President holds the primary administrative role in the federal government.

According to National Public Radio (NPR), "Nowhere does the Constitution mention the term or the concept of executive privilege."  That hasn't stopped Presidents from asserting they have such a privilege.  NPR notes that "President Dwight Eisenhower was the first president to coin the phrase 'executive privilege,' but not the first to invoke its principle: namely, that a president has the right to withhold certain information from Congress, the courts or anyone else — even when faced with a subpoena."   Already in the administration of our first president, George Washington, such a claim was made.  In that instance, Washington lost the argument and was required to hand over documents that Congress had requested about an expedition against American Indian tribes along the Ohio River.

previously, from august to december, all the individual republics, including russia itself, had either seceded from the union or at the very least denounced the treaty on the creation of the ussr. the week before formal dissolution, 11 republics signed the alma-ata protocol formally establishing the cis and declaring that the ussr had ceased to exist.[3][4] both the revolutions of 1989 and the dissolution of the ussr also marked the end of the cold war.

several of the former soviet republics have retained close links with the russian federation and formed multilateral organizations such as the commonwealth of independent states, eurasian economic community, the union state, the eurasian customs union, and the eurasian economic union to enhance economic and security cooperation. on the other hand, the baltic states have joined nato and th
