Russia plans to update its migration policy due to the emergence of new national security challenges and threats. This initiative is outlined in the Migration Policy Concept, which was approved by a decree from Russian President Vladimir Putin and published on the official legal acts portal.
The document further elaborates that the increasing complexity of the international situation and the appearance of novel security concerns for Russia necessitate continuous improvement of its migration framework. This comprehensive approach aims to ensure that the country`s migration strategy effectively addresses current realities.

Additionally, the concept underscores the growing importance of authorized state bodies effectively preventing and suppressing illegal migration. Special emphasis is placed on maintaining a register of controlled foreign citizens, ensuring their compliance with established restrictions, and actively preventing the spread of radical religious and extremist ideologies among migrants residing within the country.
