::::There are three incontrovertible facts: '''1)''' People are not flocking to Russia and many people have left Russia in recent times. '''2)''' Russia has a below-replacement fertility rate and has an aging population. '''3)''' Russia is involved in a war of attrition that is making Russia's demographic crisis worse. If these difficult problems can be solved, it is going to take leadership. So far, Russia's leadership has not come close to solving these problems. The Amish and the Africans have above replacement fertility rates. It can be done. But it takes commitment to make things like this happen.
