🗓On 1 June 1968, Russia and Singapore established diplomatic relations. Here is a brief overview of our bilateral relations that witnessed some notable milestones.
🇷🇺🇸🇬The history of Russia-Singapore ties goes back to the 19th century. Many Russian navigators and people of art visited Singapore in the past. In summer 1841, the naval transport "Abo" under the command of lieutenant commander Andrey Yunker visited the then free port.
⚓️ In his popular book "Frigate "Pallada", famous Russian writer Ivan Goncharov vividly depicted the adventures of the marine expedition under the flag of the Rear Admiral Yevfimy Putyatin from Kronstadt via Singapore to Japan.
🌏Russian writer and traveler Aleksey Vysheslavtsev portrayed Singapore in his "Essays Written with a Feather and a Pencil from the Round-the World Voyage in 1857, 1858, 1859 and 1860", which were based on his impressions.
🤴On 27 March 1890, the Russian Consulate whose head became Artemiy Vyvodtsev, was opened in Singapore. The following year, it was visited by Crown Prince Nikolay Aleksandrovich - future Emperor Nikolay II - during his "Eastern voyage".
🤝The signing of the Trade Agreement between the USSR and Singapore on 2 April 1966 also became the milestone in building ties between the two countries.
