Abstract

This  article  is  devoted  to  the  formation,  current  position,  and  development prospects  of  the  overseas  Vietnamese  community  in  Russia.  The  purpose  of  the  study  was  to critically review the directions of work of the authorities in the interests of the Diaspora and in order to  strengthen  mutually  beneficial  cooperation  between  the  two  countries  in  the  socio-economic, cultural, scientific, technical and political spheres. The authors relied on empirical data, including official statistics on migration from Vietnam to Russia, the main indicators of the socio-economic situation in Vietnam as the major factor of emigration, as well as research publications on the history of the Vietnamese communities’ formation in Russia. As the result of its analysis, we identified the main  areas  of  cooperation  between Vietnam  and  Russia  where  the  Vietnamese  diaspora  makes  a significant contribution. Accordingly, the paper proposes evidence-based policy recommendations for  the  government  and  authorities  of  Vietnam,  which  outlined  several  areas  of  work  with  the diaspora  in  Russia,  namely:  promoting  intercultural  dialogue,  providing  information  support  and legal  assistance  for  legal  migration,  developing  cooperation  in  the  economy,  trade,  and  labor,  as well as joint scientific research and technology transfer.
