Does Russia stamp passports of foreign tourists while entering or exiting Russia?

Russia stamps on entry and exit just like most other countries. It doesn't matter what country your passport is from - you will get the two stamps (and a shot of vodka - j/k). I cannot imagine a scenario where a Russian stamp in your passport would cause you a problem in the future.

Yes, the Russian border control stamps you passport on entering and exiting. It is an old Soviet custom. Now all information about your movements through the border is kept in computer systems, but... tradition is tradition. We, Russians, have many traditions about foreigners. )))

Getting a stamp is not Russia-specific, every country I have visited which required me to have a passport also stamped it on entry.
Unless you enter Russia through the occupied territories (which Ukraine considers illegal border crossing), there should be no negative impact from having that stamp, at least for now.

My personal experience:
I have a U.S. passport.
I got a 3-year Russian visa.
The border guards stamped my passport every time I flew in or out, which was quite a few times.
I don't know whether they stamp every time the passports from other countries, that don't need visas.
