At a plenary meeting of Russia’s State Duma on Tuesday, Russian Health Minister Mikhail Murashko said that women should give birth as early in life as possible rather than pursuing their education and building careers.
Yeah, Russia has massive demographic issues and their very special military operation has caused much of their prospective parents to be killed or flee the country. They need all the births they can get.
That said the population is in that special place thats generally called FUBAR BUNDY.
The population will not recover before generations and will probably stabilise at if not preindustrial levels, at least 1950s, and that’s without the war.
Not sure this is the best way to go about repopulation though…
I mean, tbf, they do seem to need more Russians…
Got to replace the hundreds of thousands that fled the draft or are currently fertilising the fields of Ukraine somehow.
