Why is it a woman waits until she is 29 for having her first child is a question to answer.
Social engineering desires to have huge families may run into some difficulties if humanity’s nature isn’t understood.
Increase the number of smaller families seems more realistic in a prosperous country.
An overbearing State philosophy may curb the desire for sex as it’s so shy in its choices in selecting a mate? Or???
A Culture worshipping the God of Money is a sterile one as is evident in the west where to be either female or male seems confusing? Millennials not having children as its a burden.
Money as a God culture is a brutal one for the young.
Sure many basic practical details of encouraging the young to have a family will succeed.
You hit the nail on the head. The key is getting the birthrate over 2.3 one way or another. How to get couples married earlier so the family can be started earlier and thus have a chance to reach three or four by the mother’s 33-35th birthday—and keep them married: The divorce rate is rather high and also reveals another impediment.
Most ministers wanted to throw more money at the situation. Some created offices to study the issue, as if more time and waiting would be helpful. The real issue is the structure of society expecting women to work full time as the norm.
I've been following this issue for almost 30 years and resolving it will be difficult as the culture must change, including the issue you raise. Having a surplus population would a negate the need for so many women to work. But as revealed during Direct Line and in this meeting, there are a host of challenges. Over the years, Putin has had many interactions with young women and the talk of marriage and family at times gets awkward; same with men too. Think about the entire process of how a family is formed and its primary components--all those things that must happen first before a child gets born ignoring unplanned for the moment.
Hi Karl, I take issue with 3 things with Putin and/or you!
Firstly the patriarchy doesn't mean men- as in men suffered when the patriarchy was violently attacked. The patriarchy refers to the system that traps both men and women by educating and conditioning them to reward dominance (or submission) over women, animals and the environment. In the West it also refers to dominance (or submission) over non-white coloured people.
Secondly, I don't think people are the most important aspect of economy. Energy resources are now used more and more by robots to make things. The most important aspect of the economy is manufacturing higher value goods such as technical products- this is happening in China as they make their own semi-conductors and smart phones etc. Also immigrants can be used for labour in lowered paid manual jobs as is the case in the UK.
Thirdly, neither children nor energy resources are the limiting factors to the future of Russia or all nations. It's food. China's massive population is declining slightly (as GDP rises) though India's massive one is stilling increasing. Emissions of co2 are still increasing, solar and wind are merely providing energy additions. The Paris agreement has failed. We are on track for agricultural failures due to temperature increases being too hot for workers and animals, floods due to the increased water vapour in the air and famines from decades of depleted soils. There will be mass migrations to Russia which is partly in a lucky latitude. This would solve the demographic 'problem' as Putin sees it, though they wouldn't be able to feed many of them.
I think Putin has gone mad. Lost it. In an interview published by Russia 1 TV journalist Pavel Zarubin on Sunday he said:
“And when our current opponents - and maybe potential partners - will finally hear, understand and realize this, it seems to me that at that point the realization will come that what is needed is to seek compromises,” he said.
Moscow is ready to try to rebuild ties with the US and its allies, but it should only happen “without harming our interests,” Putin pointed out.
This fool is open to discussions and agreements and rebuilding ties with the US and it's allies including NATO. This is madness. He is completely blind to the threat the US poses to Russia existence and peace across the world. He needs to go.
World peace has been very lucky to have Putin and Xi at this time. They both are totally aware what the US is trying to do and though they will defend themselves they know that war with the US will be disastrous for everyone. That is why they are open to discussions and agreements.
The threat from the US diminishes daily. They have lost in Ukraine and although successful in destabilising Syria, propping up Israel is unsustainable, politically and economically. The sanctions on China are already backfiring and if they sanction everyone who dedollarises they're gonna end up very lonely.
Immigration is necessary but not sufficient to solve Russia’s demographic crisis when you look at how much higher the fertilization rate must be raised. As I stated, this is a project that amounts to social engineering because of what it entails. And this effort will need to continue for the rest of the 21st Century. As for spreading its culture, Russia does that but is up against the more potent reach of Western media and the longstanding Anti-Russia Crusade that’s lasted for over 100 years.

I think they would do well not to focus on the West anymore, They already have a very valuable promoter with you!

thanks for posting the news.

Slightly off-topic.

The threat from the US diminishes daily. How so?
They have lost in Ukraine. How so? Not yet they haven't.
Propping up Israel is unsustainable. How so?
The sanctions on China are already backfiring. How so?. Trump threatens even more soon.
No one is 'de-dollarizing' for in years into the future.
Time will tell.
