Since 2014, Russia and Laos have been working on increasing cooperation. Russian politician Valentina Matviyenko met with Lao politician Pany Yathotou, discussing improving and strengthening relations between the two countries. Tourism from Russia to Laos has gone up over the last several years, with Russian citizens not needing a visa to enter Laos. Around 200 Laotian students attended school in Russia. Plans were also made to create a Russian language school in Vientiane.[3]
