In 1989, '''ethnic Russians''' in Tajikistan made up 7.6% of the population; by 1998 the proportion had reduced to approximately 0.5% following the Tajikistani Civil War which had displaced the majority of ethnic Russians. Following the end of the war, Russian emigration continued. The ethnic German population of Tajikistan has also declined due to emigration: having topped at 38,853 in 1979, it has almost vanished since the collapse of the Soviet Union.<ref>"Tajikistan", in Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tajikistan#Demographics, accessed 23 July 2021.</ref> | *In 1989, '''ethnic Russians''' in Tajikistan made up 7.6% of the population; by 1998 the proportion had reduced to approximately 0.5% following the Tajikistani Civil War which had displaced the majority of ethnic Russians.

*The population of Tajiks in '''Russia''' was about 200,303 according to the 2010 census, up from 38,000 in the last Soviet census of 1989. '''Most Tajiks came to Russia after the dissolution of the Soviet Union''', often as '''guest workers''' in places like Moscow and Saint Petersburg or federal subjects near the '''Kazakhstan border'''. There are currently estimated to be over one million Tajik guest workers living in Russia, with their remittances accounting for as much as half of Tajikistan's economy. | |||
*There are an estimated 220,000 Tajiks in '''Pakistan''' as of 2012, mainly '''refugees from Afghanistan'''.[ During the 1990s, as a result of the Tajikistan Civil War, between 700 and 1,200 Tajikistanis arrived in Pakistan, mainly as students, the '''children of Tajikistani refugees in Afghanistan'''. In 2002, around 300 requested to return home and were repatriated back to Tajikistan with the help of the IOM, UNHCR and the two countries' authorities. | |||
