Russian migration refers to the movement of people from the Russian Federation to other countries or regions. This migration can be driven by various factors, including economic opportunities, political instability, and social conditions. Many Russians seek better living conditions, education, or employment abroad. Historically, significant waves of Russian migration have occurred, particularly after the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991. Today, countries like Germany, Israel, and the United States are popular destinations for Russian migrants. The migration patterns often reflect the search for safety, freedom, and improved quality of life.
