According to the report, since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, many Russians have fled the country. These migrants, who include those fleeing political repression, avoiding military conscription, and opposing the war, have relocated to various destinations. This outflow is considered the largest exodus of Russians in the past 30 years, primarily driven by the war and conscription efforts. According to various estimates, between 500,000 and 1.3 million people left Russia in the first year of the Ukrainian war. Russians moved mainly to visa-free countries: Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, the UAE and Mongolia. The state hides the facts of emigration and reports that the migration flow in the first six months of 2022 amounted to only 96.7 thousand people, which was even less than the pre-COVID figures. After the start of the war in Ukraine, the United States unexpectedly became the first country to which Russians applied for asylum en masse. According to incomplete figures, 48 thousand Russians moved to this country. Those who went to Israel are mainly of Jewish origin.
The report also stated that the United Arab Emirates has long been a country where not only the rich live. Tens of thousands of Russians have moved to Dubai and Sharjah - they work here, do business, and gain status by opening companies. Moving here is not “living like a sheikh”, but a legalized way to work peacefully abroad. Renting an apartment starting at $ 1,000 is nothing in this country, from income to taxes. Russians choose this country not only because it is tax-free. It is both safe and has a stable economy. According to recent data, 100 thousand Russians have moved to Georgia, and about 70 thousand of them have already settled permanently in this country. Russians choose this place because their language is understandable, the climate is mild, and the food is delicious. And the price of renting an apartment here starts at just $300.Kazakhstan has been among the top three countries where Russians have settled the most in the last three years. Official statistics on permanent immigrants to this country have not been released, but hundreds of thousands of Russians have crossed the border since the war.
Additionally, the second country where Russians have settled the most in the last three years is our brotherly Turkey. 150 thousand Russians have already received residence permits here. According to Russians, this is a tourist destination, but it is also very convenient to live. Russians already have their own schools, clinics, and law offices in Alanya, Antalya, and Istanbul. Tens of thousands of Russians live there without plans to return. The country where Russians emigrated the most after the war is Serbia. 300 thousand have emigrated here. Belgrade is already called the new “Russian Vilnius”. Serbia is not a member of the European Union.
