Russian President Vladimir Putin is urging Russians to have more children.
"Large families must become the norm," Putin said in a speech Tuesday.
Russian birth rates are falling amid war in Ukraine and a deepening economic crisis.
Russian President Vladimir Putin is urging women to have as many as eight children as the number of dead Russian soldiers continues to rise in his war with Ukraine, worsening the country’s population crisis.
Addressing the World Russian People’s Council in Moscow on Tuesday, Putin said the country must return to a time when large families were the norm.
“Many of our grandmothers and great-grandmothers, had seven, eight, or even more children,” Putin said.
It is not illegal for military-aged men to leave Russia - only if you already have draft papers on hand.
The question is - which countries are still ready to accomodate Russians on their side.
Or with new laws if voencom marked you as drafted.
Btw which? Asking for a friend. Do not suggest Belarus or Kazahstan.
There are always Armenia and Georgia, but they are already overburdened with Russians. There are Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, there is Azerbaijan, there is Kyrgyzstan, there is Mongolia, there is Serbia, there is Thailand, there are less obvious/more expensive/more extreme options like Equador, Palestine (eh), the Bahamas, Mauritius, Marocco, Panama, and there are unrecognized countries like South Osetia, Abkhazia, Transnistria. And if you have time to prepare visa in advance there are many, many more options.
South Osetia and Abkhazia are Putin’s puppets.
Thanks.
Hmm… What are chances of getting visa somewhere in EU?
Slim, to say the least.
Still, you can try getting educational/work visa somewhere in Finland, or France, for example, and go from there.
Or, if you’re in danger other than mobilization, you can try to request political asylum - things get worse with that too, but it’s still possible.
Thanks
