The article examines the migration of Bukharians to Western Siberia using the "Imperial intermediaries", with an analysis of legislative, archival and narrative sources. The authors consider the motives of the tsarist government, which sought to regularly the confirm benefits and state protection to the Siberian Bukharians. The authors conclude that the reasons for such decisions were not only the benefits of trade, economic, political and diplomatic character, but also, in particular, bloody wars in Central Asia and the ideology of the first tsars of the Romanov dynasty. This ideology included the religious-Orthodox component of "royal mercy" and the protection of those peoples who turned to Russia for help.
