I have dual UK-USA citizenship and am weighing the benefits of acquiring a UK passport. Will carrying an EU member state passport make it easier to live and work in Russia?

But who knows, maybe they'll do it with the USA only. Anyway, it's always worth to have two passports, so I would recommend you to get the British one. Also, there might be something in it about paying the taxes, but I don't know what Maybe it's something like double taxation and where you prefer to pay taxes and where it is easier to arrange this.
