You're right, it's still pathetic. However, they came a long way since the '90s when Russia was losing nearly 1,000,000 people a year.

A lot of them were emigrants fleeing once the Berlin Wall came down and the Soviet Union imploded.
According to this, Russia’s abortion rate has declined steeply form the unreal numbers in the early 90’s, which supports your idea. It could be that they are just using better birth control now, I suppose.
“So, in 2012 there were about 42 abortions per 100 live births, not 130. The last time the number of abortions exceeded the number of births by 30% or more was in 2002. Additionally, rather than representing “the most grisly statistic the world has ever seen,” an abortion rate 30% larger than the birth rate was actually a huge improvement from rates that prevailed in the early 1990s”
According to this, there was a peak of something like 280 abortions per 100 live births in the early 90’s.
