Russia's War Losses: A Demographic Crisis
Russias war in Ukraine has resulted in over one million casualties, primarily men, with daily losses ranging from one thousand to one thousand seven hundred. This staggering toll, unprecedented in modern warfare, is exacerbating Russias demographic crisis, with fertility rates stubbornly low and a shrinking pool of men for mobilization. The war deaths alone represent a significant percentage of Russias pre-war male population in their prime working and reproductive years. As losses mount, Russias population decline is accelerating, potentially leading to mass immigration to keep the economy afloat, with migrant numbers potentially jumping from under eight million to nearly twenty million.
