History
Russians began migrating to Turkey during the first half of the 1990s. Most were fleeing the economic problems prevalent after the dissolution of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Giving rise to mixed marriages between Russians and Turks. However, recently there has been an epidemic of Russians fleeing Turkey for Russia, or other Russian-speaking countries. There is a Russian Association of Education, Culture and Cooperation which aims to expand Russian language and culture in Turkey as well as promote the interests of the community.
