Sultan Ibrahim to make first state visit to Russia by Malaysian monarch
KUALA LUMPUR: The Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Ibrahim will make history as the first Malaysian monarch to undertake a state visit to the Russian Federation, from Aug 5 to 10, 2025. The visit, at the invitation of Russian President Vladimir Putin, marks a significant milestone in Malaysia-Russia relations, which began with the establishment of diplomatic ties in 1967. In a statement, the Foreign Ministry said the visit underscores the vital role of the Malaysian monarchy in advancing the nation's diplomacy on the global stage. "The state visit not only serves to strengthen existing bilateral ties, but also opens avenues for new cooperation across various sectors, including trade, higher education, technology and innovation, and people-to-people engagement," it said is a statement. As Asean chair in 2025, Malaysia is also expected to play a key role in reinforcing strategic partnerships, particularly with Russia, which has been a dialogue partner of Asean since 1996. During the visit to Moscow, Sultan Ibrahim will be accorded a state welcome at the Kremlin, followed by an official meeting with President Putin. His Majesty will also attend a state banquet hosted by the Russian president. Sultan Ibrahim is also scheduled to visit several leading Russian innovation hubs, including the Central Automotive Development Centre (NAMI) and the Tochka Kipeniya Technology and Innovation Hub. Following the engagements in Moscow, His Majesty will proceed to Kazan in the Republic of Tatarstan on Aug 8. Tatarstan, a Muslim-majority autonomous republic within the Russian Federation, plays a unique role in fostering interfaith understanding and cultural exchange. While in Kazan, Sultan Ibrahim is expected to grant an audience to Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov and tour a local helicopter manufacturing and assembly facility. The state visit highlights Malaysia's commitment to exploring new diplomatic and economic frontiers while furthering international cooperation rooted in mutual respect and shared interests.
