List of ambassadors of Russia to the Comoros

Diplomatic relations between the Soviet Union and the Comoros were established on 6 January 1976. Relations were initially handled through the Soviet embassy in Seychelles, with the Soviet ambassador to Seychelles dually accredited to the Comoros. The first ambassador, Aleksandr Startsev [ru], was appointed on 20 January 1978.^[3] The practice continued until the third ambassador, Viktor Anisimov [ru], who served concurrently as ambassador to the Seychelles and to the Comoros until 20 February 1991, when he was replaced as ambassador to the Seychelles, but retained his post to the Comoros, now solely accredited. With the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Comoros recognised the Russian Federation as its successor state. The incumbent Soviet ambassador, Anisimov, continued as the Russian ambassador until December 1993.^[3] He was succeeded by Yuri Merzlyakov, the incumbent ambassador to Madagascar, who was given concurrent accreditation as the ambassador to Comoros.
