Yeah that’s tricky, I’d rather accelerate brain drain. But Russia has used immigration as a weapon before, targeting propaganda and sympathies in areas Russians immigrate to.
But Russians are still getting out somehow, conscription is a great motivator.
They aren’t, but Russia has used their presence as one. What was one of their justifications for invading Ukraine? The Russian speaking population and historic ties in the easternmost regions of Ukraine. They’ve also shipped millions of people into Crimea to shift the demographics and public opinion there.
The Russian speaking population weren’t just immigrants though, those were people born in Ukraine who spoke Russian as their native language. Kinda different.
Some definitely, but not all. And it’s multigenerational too. The USSR moved people around a lot too for demographic control to minimize separatist tendencies.
I’ll sure they’re increasing their exports of skilled labor at least!
America deports Russians that try to immigrate or claim asylum. Doh!

Are you claiming that a Russian speaking person born in Ukraine is actually a Russian immigrant if their grandparents are from Russia?
Russia uses immigrants as weapons on Europe
If those people are weapons, does that mean you want to kill them?
Go away troll
