Embassy Of Ukraine, Moscow

The Embassy of Ukraine in Moscow was the chief diplomatic mission of Ukraine in the Russian Federation. It was located at 18 Leontyevsky Lane (Russian: Леонтьевский переулок, 18) in Moscow.

In March 2014, as a result of Russia's annexation of Crimea, Ukraine recalled its ambassador and Ukraine was represented by its temporary chargé d'affaires until the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022. Ukraine severed diplomatic relations with Russia and evacuated its entire embassy personnel from Moscow that day. The embassy's personnel were officially welcomed to the Latvian capital, Riga, on 4 March.
