Country overview

Russia remains under the highest advisory tier issued by the U.S. State Department, UK FCDO, and Australian DFAT, driven by the ongoing war against Ukraine now in its fifth year, pervasive wrongful detention risk for foreign nationals, and active terrorism threats across the country.

Ukrainian drone strikes have expanded well beyond front-line border regions to strike energy infrastructure and urban areas including Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kazan, and Novorossiysk, demonstrating that no part of Russian territory should be considered outside the conflict's reach.

The political environment under President Vladimir Putin remains fully authoritarian, with media, courts, and security services subordinated to the Kremlin, and genuine opposition activity effectively criminalized.
