according to 'official' figures, Russia is claiming 219K deaths from covid, with a total of 7.8 million cases (an alleged 2.8% death rate). But with a case report of 28K cases today alone (which will equate to a 2.8% rate of 784 deaths), the real numbers might be a lion's share to the population drop of one million, than Russia will admit.

The fact that Russians are so spiritually broken that they are willing themselves to die is all part of it.

Stalin would dispute that claim. There were a lot more “natural deaths” while he was in charge. No pandemic could come close to his sickness.

“Russia’s natural population has declined by 997,000”.

How many migrated to Mexico?

I agree. Stalin starved about 4 million Ukrainians in 1933-34. The Holomodor doesn’t get mentioned enough. Stalin found lots of ways to kill his own people.

Every year....there’s probably a minimum of 30k Russians that ‘arrive’ in Germany. Even in Berlin, the belief is around 320k to 340k Russians. Across all of Germany, upwards to 1.4-million (2018 numbers).

Stalin made Hitler look like an amateur.

And the United States abortion industry has made them both look like philanthropists.

I suspect WWII had a larger population decline. It was brutal for the russians

Lost in translation in a lot of demographic studies for Russia is the fact that their muslim population continues to grow annually.
The estimated percentage of muslims in Moscow is somewhere between 25 - 35% and growing.

Don’t believe wikilies data on this and their government won’t report it either due to unrest with that population.

First line of the article:

Hard to make more Russians to stop the decline when women are not having enough kids, leaving to migrate elsewhere or become prostitutes to escape.

Or, was the population previously over stated?

This would be the time to adjust previously inflated numbers

They did say peacetime, but of course Uncle Joe thought he was “in peacetime” when he starved 20m kulaks in the name of DemoKKKrat policies.

The Russians should be concerned about Chinacoms looking for energy sources and “living space.”
