Yes. · Alaska and Russia share a border. The U.S.-Russian maritime boundary zigzags down the Bering Strait between the Asian and American land masses. · Alaska and Russia are less than 3 miles apart at their closest point in the Bering Strait where two islands, Russia's Big Diomede Island and Alaska's Little Diomede Island, are located. In winter it is possible to walk across the frozen Bering Strait border between these two islands. At its closest, the American mainland and the Russian mainland are 55 miles apart where Alaska's Seward Peninsula and Russia's Chukotka Peninsula reach out to each other.

Yes, the border touches several countries including; Poland, Lithuania, Belarus, Latvia, Ukraine, Estonia, Finland, Norway, Georgia (Country), North Korea, Mongolia, China, Kazakhstan, and Azerbaijan. Russian territories were not yet complete until the 1940's. In this case the Russian Empire started out in Europe with it's first capitals Moscow and St. Pittsburgh. It expanded more in the 1680's crossing over to Stalingrad (Volgograd) and over to the Cherskiy Range. Japan at this time shared Sakhalin island and the Kuril islands together until the war between the USSR began taking over it's territories. Japans extension decreased. Also in the 1910's, Russian overtook these following countries; Kazakhstan, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and the southern parts of Kazakhstan. There was also a peninsula captured by the Russians in 1801. Today, these are known as two different states called Kamchatka and Chockotka. Now, Russia borders the most secretive country of all the world, North Korea.
