Russian authorities will launch construction of a village outside Moscow for conservative-minded Americans and Canadians next year, the state-run RIA Novosti news agency reported Thursday.
Russia has for years positioned itself as a bastion of "traditional" values in contrast with Western liberalism as its relations with the West have deteriorated over its 2014 annexation of Crimea and 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
Timur Beslangurov, a migration lawyer at Moscow’s VISTA Foreign Business Support, claimed that “around 200 families” wish to emigrate to Russia for “ideological reasons.”
“The reason is propaganda of radical values: Today they have 70 genders, and who knows what will come next,” RIA Novosti quoted Beslangurov as saying, echoing President Vladimir Putin’s frequently deployed grievances against Western countries’ comparative gender freedom.
“Many normal people emigrate and are considering Russia, but they’re faced with huge bureaucratic problems with Russia’s migration law,” he said.
He said the Moscow region administration has greenlit the construction of the expat village and that it will be financed by the relocating families.
The lawyer further claimed without offering evidence that “tens of thousands” of foreigners without Russian roots would like to move to Russia for similar ideological reasons.
The construction of a migrant village for Americans and Canadians has not yet been publicly announced by officials.
Russia, which has ranked among the worst countries for expats in recent years, experienced a major downturn in tourism and other foreign arrivals after the invasion of Ukraine.
Still, Federal Security Service (FSB) data recorded an uptick in visits for tourism, work, study and business to Russia in early 2023.
I'm part slavic so the Russian culture would suit me....
If you told someone in 1960 that you were writing a dystopian novel set 70 tears in the future where God-loving patriotic Americans would move to special ghettoes outside Moscow to get away from the faggots and women’s libbers who took over the USA, you would have been laughed at.
RE: Russia to Build ‘Migrant Village’ for Conservative American Expats
Any American who prefers Russia’s system over the USA is NOT conservative.
The USA that you're comparing this to doesn't exist anymore.
My wife is a native Russian speaker from East Ukraine. She'd be thrilled.
Our children would hate us and curse our names if we dragged them to Russia.

Extend that to "any American who prefers the Uniparty's definition of "our democracy"™ over the Constitution is not truly an American
There was an early ‘60 episode of Secret Agent where the USSR set up a special town for British people, but for a different reason. Great episode, and definitely an inspiration for “The Prisoner”. Worth the 53 minute watch if you just want to see good TV.

Anyone who is enticed to move to Russia because they’re mad at the USA should read the book “The Forsaken” by Tim Tzouliadis. It’s about a bunch of Americans who went to the Soviet Union to work during the Depression. Almost all were murdered. But I’m sure Putin will respect your 2nd Amendment rights so you can defend yourself.
RE: which flavor of the 57 varieties of conservative do you mean?
Can you cite me at least 3 such varieties so that I can comment on each? Thanks.
Real women, almost zero risk of Y chromosome "women".
Russia is still authoritarian, so if the switch gets flipped, you are stuck.
Also, they are not big on Catholics, and really not big on any flavor of Christianity that would tend to proselytize among the Orthodox or even unchurched.
Interesting, nonetheless, though.
I’m certainly not moving to Russia, I still have some hope for the future of this country.
With Title 42 ending today and the invasion of the Southern Border going on, I guarantee you Putin in not allowing an uncontrolled number of people to enter Russia and brining a foreign culture with them.
LOL, will it have indoor plumbing? Many Russians live without indoor plumbing because they live in rural areas, in villages where there is no centralized water supply and sanitation.

I hate to be the one to tell you, pal - but Russia, China, and the USA are all converging on the same statist, central-planning, mass-surveillance governance model.
Russia honors their white people.
The US viciously attacks and seeks to harm white people in thousands of ways.
