Russia Unveils New Migration Plan: Targeted Employment, Local Control
Russia is set to revamp its migration policies, concentrating on the targeted employment of migrants and decreasing family-related relocations. The new Concept, while upholding international commitments, also grants local authorities the power to regulate foreigner registration and residence. It strives to strike a balance between labor demands, security, and social stability, while curtailing illegal immigration.
The Concept, among other things, plans to facilitate the return of residents from certain regions and attract migrants who align with Russia's spiritual and moral values. It also aims to reduce the number of foreign children not enrolled in Russian schools.
Groups advocating for migration to Russia abroad are connected to state-backed organizations like the Russkiy Mir Foundation, although specific non-governmental networks remain unclear. However, the Concept lacks detailed strategies for differentiating between various types of migration: labor, social, and repatriation.
The new migration Concept in Russia aims to simplify migrant employment, uphold international obligations, and empower local authorities. It seeks to balance labor needs, security, and social stability, while reducing illegal immigration and increasing government-recruited migrants and foreign students.
