Summary/Abstract: Based on interwar press, stenographic notes from the Assembly of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, as well as literature, the article examines how the Yugoslav public perceived the Russian diaspora from the time of their arrival in the country until the outbreak of the 1941 April War. During the first few years, public opinion was divided on the subject of the Russian refugees, but from the beginning of the 1930s, as the majority of them integrated themselves into the local community, the public began to acknowledge that this group was a part of the Yugoslav society.
