Hundreds of thousands of professional workers, many of them young, have left Russia since its invasion of Ukraine, accelerating an exodus of business talent and further threatening an economy targeted by Western sanctions.
Those leaving the country include tech workers, scientists, bankers and doctors, according to surveys, economists and interviews with emigrants. They are departing for countries including Georgia, Armenia and Turkey. More are expected to follow.
A mid-March survey by OK Russians, a nonprofit helping people leave the country, estimated that around 300,000 workers had departed since the war started in late February. While precise counts of the number of people leaving Russia aren’t available, some economists have reached similar conclusions about the scale of the outflow. Around 500,000 people left Russia in 2020, according to Rosstat, Russia’s statistics agency.

“Who is better off?“
Gee lets figure that out by how people vote with their feet.
How many Russians move to the EU, UK, and the US vs the other way around. My neighbor across the street moved here two years ago from Russia. I call him the mini oligarch because he has some serious money. I know others who moved from Russia to the US. I know of no one who has moved from the US to Russia.
Nazis, I tell you. All Nazis.
Same thing is happening from China. Actually the flight from there is at a higher percentage rate. Now with the Shanghai “lockdown” and Xi purge, it’s going to only accelerate.
Nazis and globalists. George Soros is probably paying all of them to leave Russia. Oh, and it’s all media propaganda too.
Did I leave out any of the tired tropes?
The source is the Wall Street Journal, and who would believe anything that emanates from them?
I forgot how many thousands of Russians have crossed out southern border - more the the 3,600 of some months ago for sure.
This has been going on for awhile. Russians here have told me their families are getting out. Families to the US and college kids to Europe.

lol. The super CIA spy and Navy SEAL.
USeful educated or liberal “educated?”
They don’t do “woke” in Russia.
Yeah. Doesn’t everybody want to come here.
We’re being turned into a Third World Motel 6 with nukes.
By all means. Let the globalist put someone else in chatge of Russia. This was always about tegime change and bidens nrw world order. Imagine the leader they will install.
Remember, the Magnificent Vindman Brothers came here from the Ukraine. White Russians aren’t going to help stop the La Raza mob’s takeover of America.
Any russkies or Ukes coming here need to get in line and go through the legal process. Also, so does everybody else. We need an actual border.
