Perhaps he could bring some men back from the front?
We have plenty of adults in this country who refuse to work I know that much.
Maybe we should be worried about our own country first instead of this “Russia” obsession that morphs into obsession with Ukraine.
LOL - job shortages and rising wages spell doom for Russia!
The UK, Germany, France are SO lucky to have 40% youth unemployment and stagnating wages.
THAT’S how they will defeat Putin!
Illegal aliens is your solution Putin.
Work at 14. Get sent to the meat grinder at 16. Or if you’re lucky enough to live through a tour of Ukraine drink yourself to death at the ripe old ago of 40. Russia stronk like bear.
Democrats want 14 year old Mexicans to work…. Whats the big deal
Indeed. Import limitless uneducated illiterate Africans like Germany and put them all on welfare. Win win.
“Russia’s catastrophic labour shortage has forced businesses to hire teenagers and retirees to fill jobs”
How is this a problem, exactly? Russian teenagers will get valuable work experience and retirees will earn extra income to supplement their (in Russia not very great) pension payments. I’m retired and feel like I’ll have to get a job to keep up with inflation and the cost of living, and also just to keep busy. Instead of importing millions of illegal aliens to do the jobs we supposedly don’t want to do, we should put our native teenagers and elders back to work, too.
Y’all know if you’d stop killing your working men in a WAR you started, you may not have such a problem.
You will win the battle but Russia will lose the war.
The Kremlin has also been discussing efforts to increase the birth rate, which Putin called a matter of “ethnic survival”.
Hey!! I have a great idea. Invade your neighbors and then get a bunch of Russians killed in a pointless conflict and have the survivors spread out over more territory!! That should increase birth rate and ethnic survival. ROFLOL
Putin is running out of drone fodder from Chechnya, Buryatia, Dagestan, Tatarstan, etc. and has been forced to send real Russians from Moscow and St Petersburg to the front.
Ivan Krastev, chair of the Center for Liberal Strategies in Bulgaria, and Stephen Holmes, a law professor at New York University, argue President Vladimir Putin’s obsession with Russia’s demographic decline may be the key.
In an analysis in Foreign Policy magazine on Dec. 6, they drew a parallel with “mourning wars” during the 17th and 18th centuries, when Native American tribes kidnapped women and children from other tribes to offset losses from wars or disease.
“In many ways, it resembles an updated version of such a war, a desperate attempt to replenish a dwindling population by forcibly incorporating a neighboring people into Russia’s own,” Krastev and Holmes wrote. “While the invasion was undoubtedly sparked by imperialist ambitions, anti-Western resentment, and a desire for Great Power recognition, it may also have been conditioned by Russia’s rapidly shrinking, aging, and emigrating population.”

The GDP per person in Germany is almost 4 times that of Russia.

Putin wanted to repopulate Russia with white Ukrainians but he never captured any meaningful Ukrainian population centers in more than 3 years. All he captured were bombed out villages and fields whose populations fled prior to the Russians arrival. So all he has are the Muslim ex Soviet republics population to source population from.
Orosius: How is this a problem, exactly?
Quite right: "War is good business! Invest your son!"
I hear there are lots of openings in the funeral sector.

New York Times headline would be: “Russian unemployment at historic lows”
Yep.
Really cranking up the propaganda are you?
Cretinous spamming azzhole.
