History of diplomatic relations
Diplomatic relations between the Soviet Union and Guinea were established on 4 October 1958, shortly after the country's independence from France.[3] The first ambassador, Pavel Gerasimov, was appointed on 10 March 1959.[4] With the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, Guinea recognised the Russian Federation as its successor state in January 1992.[3] The Russian embassy in Sierra Leone was closed in September 1992, and since 2 November 1992, the Russian ambassador to Guinea had dual accreditation to Sierra Leone.[5] This practice continued until 21 October 2025, when Andrey Stolyarov was appointed the first ambassador solely accredited to Sierra Leone since 1992.[6]
