History of diplomatic relations
In 1987, Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev called for the establishment of diplomatic relations with Brunei. Although the Soviet ambassador to Singapore attempted to establish relations with Brunei in 1988, the Sultanate was unprepared to establish relations with the Communist state at the time. On 1 October 1991, Brunei established relations with the Soviet Union, and Soviet relations with the Sultanate were initially handled via the Soviet embassy in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The first ambassadors to Brunei were non-resident ambassadors, accredited to Brunei in addition to their posts as ambassadors of Russia to Malaysia. The first ambassador accredited solely to Brunei was Viktor Seleznyov, appointed on 31 July 2009.
