Low birth rate? Don’t they mean high murder rate? How many babies did russian women murder last year with this thing that is called abortion?
India is already has more than 4 time bigger than USA population, and their birth rate is sky high. The median age in India is lower than any western country and Japan. And it is not ruled by a dictator.
so its all going to turn around this year??
A million Soviets (mostly Russian) with Jewish connections left for Israel since 1990. Most were reproductive age.
And another million mostly Russians came to the US, again mostly of parenting age.
That’s going to turn into a demographic dent.
Unlikely. We'll enjoy a lull, that's for sure. But it's only a matter of time before we see another variant emerge. How virulent will it be? No one knows.
People have been leaving Russia since Putin
More every day. Especially young people.
You can’t have prosperity when 6 of 10 adults have a serious drinking problem.
So, given that, why would anyone in their right mind believe that Putin wants to start wars in Eastern Europe and take countries over against their will as millions of young Russians died in war?
Much of the Russian landmass is uninhabitable. The Chinese may be able to take over parts of the temperate landmass, but much of the indigenous population therein are accustomed to the cold and could probably live out their days in the wastes of Siberia without much concern from southern armies.
They’re mostly in West L.A. and enclaves in Miami etc. West Hollywood has historically been called Little Russia since the 70’s.
Look to the UN to demand that Russia open up its borders to African and Middle Eastern immigrants - massive numbers of them.
We could fly all the illegals and rapists entering our Southern border to Russia, why not, Brandon is flying them to every town in America.
China has a huge demographic decline also.
I think the future willbe tightening up existing resources rather than just conquest of new ones until demographics begin to change. China might go full gene engineering in a few years and add factory babies, not sure where they are on that tech.
“China has a huge demographic decline also.”
That’s a good point, but not the only factor. China’s population has been stable for a while now, but as they have industrialized their resource consumption per capita has skyrocketed.
In the last 30 years China has increased its resource consumption 10x. To get to a South Korea level of development they need to increase that another 10 times.
A bottomless need for the world’s resources and the need to control them will dominate the next 50 years of geopolitics.
“Much of the Russian landmass is uninhabitable. The Chinese may be able to take over parts of the temperate landmass, but much of the indigenous population therein are accustomed to the cold and could probably live out their days in the wastes of Siberia without much concern from southern armies.”
True, but a part of that is Russians have plenty of space they don’t need to move to Siberia.
Compare bordering areas. China’s Heilongjiang Province has 40 million people. It’s next door to and has the same climate as Russia’s Primorsky Krai which has only 2 million.
If China were to take Siberia I’m confident it’s population would hit 100 million within a generation.
