Former Deputy of the State Duma, former head of the Foreign Affairs Committee in the State Duma, the lower house of the Russian Parliament.[1]

From 2008 to 2011, Pushkov was the Director of the Institute of Contemporary International Studies at the Diplomatic Academy of Russia.[2] He was elected to the Duma on 4 December 2011 on the United Russia Party list.

In 2014, Pushkov suggested that Petro Poroshenko dismiss Andrii Deshchytsia, who was accused by Sergei Lavrov of calling Vladimir Putin a dickhead during the rioting near the Russian Embassy in Ukraine.
