1 mission of Russian Federation in Maldives: Consulate of Russia in Male, Maldives. Addresses, phones and contacts.
Head of mission: Mr. Ali Fauzy, Honorary Consul (confirmed in the diplomatic list of Maldives, 19 Nov 2024)
Russia offers a captivating blend of cultural and natural attractions, making it an intriguing destination for some Maldivians. While it attracts around 6.4 million foreign visitors each year, its appeal lies in the diversity of experiences available rather than just the number of tourists. A portion of the Maldivian population of 1 million may find Russia particularly appealing.
Russia's safety for tourists, including those from the Maldives, presents some concerns. It ranks 30th out of 40 European countries in terms of safety while walking alone at night. In a broader context, Russia is ranked 154th among 160 countries in the Global Peace Index. When comparing murder rates, Russia has a significantly higher rate at 6.8 per 100,000 people, compared to the Maldives' rate of 0.6. Additionally, the Global Organized Crime Index indicates that Russia faces challenges with organized crime, scoring worse in several categories, such as state crime (8.5) and crime networks (7.5), compared to the Maldives, which has lower scores in these areas. Overall, while tourists can visit Russia, they should remain vigilant and informed about local safety conditions.
