Abstract

The article examines the trends of migration to Russia after the collapse of the USSR. The collapse of the Soviet Union turned Russia into one of the most migrant-intensive countries in the world. In terms of the share of immigrants, Russia was in third place in the world, after such countries of classical immigration as the USA and Germany. The features of collecting statistics on population migration in Russia are considered. The ethno-demographic structure of migration flows to Russia is described on the basis of Rosstat data. The impact of migration on the socio-demographic development of the country is described. The socio-political consequences of migration processes in Russia in the context of the development of migration policy are highlighted. Some recommendations are offered for improving the migration policy of Russia.
