The Embassy of the Philippines in
History
The Philippines did not immediately open a resident embassy when diplomatic relations between the Philippines and the then-
Ona was later joined by two officers to help run the post, becoming the mission's erstwhile chargé d'affaires, and on September 30, 1977, Luis Moreno Salcedo arrived in Moscow as the first resident Philippine ambassador to the Soviet Union.[2]
In late 1978, Soviet authorities permitted the Philippine embassy to relocate to its current premises, an L-shaped Khrushchev-era building that previously served as the embassy of South Vietnam. Today, the building houses both the mission's chancery and ambassador's residence.[2]
Upon the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Philippine Embassy in Moscow subsequently was accredited to Russia and eleven former Soviet republics, with jurisdiction over Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania being transferred to the Philippine Embassy in Stockholm, and jurisdiction over Moldova being transferred to the Philippine Embassy in Bucharest.[2] Currently the embassy has jurisdiction over Russia, Armenia, Belarus, and Kazakhstan, with the other former Soviet republics under its jurisdiction being transferred to other missions.
