Abstract: Since its inception, the "Belt and Road" initiative has strongly promoted close cooperation between China and nations along the route in the fields of economy, culture, and language. In the context of the initiative, Russian, being an important linguistic resource bridging China and Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), has attracted high-level attention towards its development and exchange. This article attempts to explore the impact of the "Belt and Road" initiative on Russian education, communication, and cultural exchange and analyze its current situation, challenges, and future trends. Research has indicated that the "Belt and Road" initiative not only has provided a broader platform for Russian learners and speakers but also encouraged China, Russia, and other Russian-speaking countries to cooperate more deeply in economy, education, and culture. It also points out existing issues in the field and makes comprehensive suggestions for future research and development in language teaching and cross-cultural communication.
