The aim of the article is to analyse the main directions of reforming the legislation on Russian citizenship in correlation with the objectives of migration policy of the Russian Federation. The author considers the necessity of overcoming geopolitical threats, integration of new subjects into the Russian Federation, protection of compatriots’ rights, solution of demographic problems, adaptation and integration of migrants into the Russian society as such tasks. It is concluded that the problems of regulation of citizenship issues have become more relevant in connection with the aggravated international situation. The article analyses the grounds for the acquisition and termination of Russian citizenship, enshrined in the Federal Law “On Citizenship of the Russian Federation” adopted in 2023, as well as in the decrees of the President of the Russian Federation adopted thereafter. The general trend that can be traced in the development of legislation on citizenship — the simplification of the procedure for its acquisition for natives of friendly countries, close to us in language, culture, traditions, along with the tightening of the requirements of legislation in respect of persons who pose a threat to national security and law and order of the Russian Federation — has been revealed.
