[i]Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war has set off a historic exodus of his own people. Initial data shows that at least 500,000, and perhaps nearly 1 million, have left in the year since the invasion began — a tidal wave on scale with emigration following the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution and the Soviet Union’s collapse in 1991.

The financial cost, while vast, is impossible to calculate. In late December, Russia’s Communications Ministry reported that 10 percent of the country’s IT workers had left in 2022 and not returned. Russia’s parliament is now debating a package of incentives to bring them back.[/i]

This also seems like a good time to say that Ukraine's refugee count is currently at seven million.[/quote]

At the outset of the war, seven million Ukrainians fled or were displaced by the invasion.  Since then, more than half have returned.  The ones who are still outside Ukraine are still heavily supporting their homeland financially and via other means.[/quote]
