Russian President's Decree: Last year, the "Humanitarian Support for People Upholding Traditional Russian Spiritual and Moral Values" was enacted
A year ago, the President of Russia signed the Decree "On providing humanitarian support to people who share traditional Russian spiritual and moral values." This decree has since opened up opportunities for foreigners to apply for temporary residence permits, regardless of their current location.
The application process is flexible, allowing applicants to submit their requests both within Russia and abroad, to the Russian diplomatic mission or consular institution in their country of residence. Since the decree's implementation, over 1.8 thousand foreigners have applied for a temporary residence permit.
Interestingly, the most frequent countries of origin for these applicants are not specified in the provided search results. The data mainly covers asylum and residence permit statistics related to Austria and Germany, with common origin countries being Syria, Turkey, Ukraine, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Russia. However, the specific data related to the implementation of the Russian decree remains unclear.
Remarkably, no documents confirming proficiency in the Russian language, knowledge of Russian history, or understanding of Russia's basic legislation are required for temporary residence permit applications. This accessibility has undoubtedly contributed to the number of applications received.
The largest number of applications for temporary residence permits have been submitted in Moscow (594), St. Petersburg (300), Moscow Region (186), and Krasnodar Territory (176). The diversity of applicants is evident, as they include entrepreneurs, agricultural workers, educational and cultural figures.
The quota approved by the Russian government is not a factor in the consideration of temporary residence permit applications. This indicates a commitment to accommodating those who align with Russia's traditional values.
The Russian Interior Ministry is actively working to implement the provisions of the Decree on providing humanitarian support to people who share traditional Russian spiritual and moral values. As of now, 1.3 thousand relevant decisions have been taken regarding temporary residence permits.
This decree not only offers a pathway for foreigners but also creates additional mechanisms for the resettlement of residents of non-CIS countries to Russia. It's a significant step towards fostering cultural exchange and diversity within the country.
