abstract
There are several projects in the field of millimeter and submillimeter wave astronomy under development nowadays in Russia. They include in particular the 12-m space telescope "Millimetron" and 70-m radio telescope on plateau Suffa in Uzbekistan. In addition, millimeter and submillimeter wave receivers for various radio astronomical applications are developed. We briefly describe these activities.
