Russia’s system for deporting children from Ukraine began to work back in 2014, acvording to Ksenia Hell, an employee of the office of the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court in The Hague. Since February 2022 this system has intensified as children are taken deep into the territory of the aggressor country without the possibility of returning or finding relatives.

Except they do have enough people (for now), assuming they stop driving away everyone with half a working brain. Their “problem” is that most young people are not Slavic enough for the Kremlin’s racist preferences.

Naa, even with all of the non ethnic Russians, they are far, far below replacement rate. We will probably see the end of Russia in the next 50 years.
