Both countries are close allies and members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, the military alliance formed by the Collective Security Treaty Organization, and the Commonwealth of Independent States. Tajikistan hosts Russian military units and infrastructure in Central Asia. Tajikistan and Russia also work closely together in issues concerning Afghanistan and are partners in anti-terrorism, anti-narcotics, and intelligence operations.
Relations between Russia and what is now Tajikistan began with the Russian conquest of Central Asia during the 1800s. Tajikistan was ruled by the Emirate of Bukhara, which was conquered and made a protectorate by the Russian Empire in 1873.[2] During this period, Russia imported large amounts of cotton from Tajikistan.[3] Russian troops were involved in putting down several rebellions, including many Jadidist revolts. In 1916, there were many clashes in Bukhara over civilians being drafted into the Russian Army to serve in World War I, as well as unfair taxation.[4]
Soviet rule was highly centralised around Moscow and the Russian SFSR, and dissent against the USSR authorities led to the 1990 Dushanbe riots. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Tajikistan declared independence from Moscow in September 1991.
Since 1992, Russia has allowed Tajik nationals dual citizenship of Russia and Tajikistan.[5]
On May 25, 1993, a Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Mutual Assistance was signed between the two countries.[6]
Tajikistan is highly dependent on the remittances coming from Russia. In 2012, it received US$3.595 billion in migrant remittances, equalling some 48% of its GDP. Some 1.5 million Tajiks work abroad, mostly in Russia.[7]
The suspects in the Crocus City Hall attack were officially identified as citizens of Tajikistan.[10] On 25 March 2024, Tajik authorities arrested nine people from Vahdat District on suspicion of involvement with the attackers.[11] Russia has a large number of Central Asian migrant workers, including those from Tajikistan. The precarious position of Tajik migrants increased after the Crocus City Hall attack.[12]
