First of all, it should be understood that dual citizenship and second citizenship are somewhat different concepts. For example, in our country, neither is prohibited. However, Russia signed an official agreement on dual citizenship only with Tajikistan and Turkmenistan. This means that even if you issue a passport of another country for all requirements, in Russia it will be invalid.
