Twinned with Moscow
33 of 45 in this atlas
Moscow's twinning arrangements span municipalities across Europe, Asia, the Americas, and the Middle East, from Berlin and Vienna to Beijing, Tokyo, and Buenos Aires. Most pairings are mutual, though a handful, including Baku, Belgrade, Bishkek, Dubai, Havana, and Ulan Bator, are recorded only on Moscow's side, with no reciprocal listing from the other city.

7 of these do not list Moscow back. Twinning is declared independently by each municipality, so one-sided pairs are common — and usually more interesting than the mutual ones.
