This is alist of diplomatic missions of Russia. These missions are subordinate to theRussian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. TheRussian Federation has one of the largest networks of embassies and consulates of any country. Russia has significant interests in Eastern Europe, theNear East and especially in the former states of theSoviet Union. It also has extensive ties to countries in thedeveloping world, a legacy ofCold War diplomatic efforts to extend the Soviet Union's influence in Africa and Asia which are now more important for commercial reasons.
Russia established several consulates in theUnited States andCanada to cater to Russian immigrants. In 1917, the Tsarist government vanished, with a number of consuls who maintained tsarist loyalties establishing the "Council of Ambassadors" (Russian:Совещания послов), through which they worked asembassies without a government.[1][2] Among these were consuls in seven U.S. cities and three Canadian cities, receiving financing from the U.S. government. The consuls stopped their services in the late 1920s; the U.S. government seized the records of the consulates. The seizure started a long dispute. TheNational Archives and Records Administration received the documents in 1949. In 1980 the U.S. government loaned the documents of the Canadian consulates to theLibrary and Archives Canada. On 31 January 1990 the U.S. returned the documents to theSoviet Union and kept themicrofilms as evidence.[3]
After 1992, due to financial reasons,[4] embassies inFreetown (Sierra Leone),Monrovia (Liberia),Maseru (Lesotho),Mogadishu (Somalia),Niamey (Niger),Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso), andPort Moresby (Papua New Guinea) were closed. In 1995 the embassy inParamaribo (Suriname) also suspended operations.[clarification needed]
The Russian Federation has no diplomatic relations withBhutan andSolomon Islands. SinceGeorgia and Russia severed diplomatic relations in 2008, the Swiss embassy inTbilisi hosts a Russian interests section.[citation needed]
In February 2022,Micronesia andUkraine severed diplomatic relations with Russia.
Russia reached agreements to open or reopen diplomatic missions in Burkina Faso, South Sudan, and Equatorial Guinea in July 2023, and Maldives in March 2024. The embassy in Burkina Faso was opened in December 2023, and the General Consulate in Maldives in March 2024.
