War Policies and Migration Aspirations in Russia
2024.12.12
This report investigates how migration aspirations within the Russian population have evolved following the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia in 2022. It primarily focuses on the impact of the war and how changes in political conditions, including support for the Russian government, have affected people’s willingness to leave the country. For this purpose, it draws on data from the Gallup World Poll (GWP), which surveyed over 30,000 individuals in Russia between 2008 and 2023 about their migration aspirations as well as their political sentiments and socioeconomic and demographic characteristics.
