“…There is still a fairly significant share of those who entered the Russian Federation stating a "private purpose", but at the same time working without registration. A small number of foreign workers enter into official relations with Russian employers: out of 900 thousand citizens of the EAEU countries coming to "work for hire", more than 60% worked unofficially [15]. "States should redouble their efforts to reconcile national border security concerns and the basic human rights of migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers" [16].…”

The article overviews the peculiarities of migration in the Russian Federation in the modern period and analyzes the situation faced by people with a migrant background in Russia. The study provides a detailed description of the regions that are popular among immigrants and the underlying reasons for their choices. The main directions of migration flows in Russia are studied (Moscow, Moscow Region, St. Petersburg, Leningrad Region, Krasnodar Region, Novosibirsk and Tyumen Regions); the reasons for the popularity of these regions among migrants are revealed. The goals of the arrival of foreign migrants in Russia, as well as the information about their level of education and age category, are presented. It was revealed that more than 80% of migrants who arrived in Russia were males of working age.

“…The situation is such that in the regions of the country the level of remuneration is formed differentially and is directly dependent on the socio-economic development of the territory (Parkhomchuk et al, 2021;Borovitskaya et al, 2019).The situation in the labor market is aggravated by the presence of territorial differentiation in the level of wages, which activates the processes of labor migration in the economy and thereby creates a shortage of personnel in less attractive regions of the country (Mkrtchyan and Florinskaya, 2018). As a result, there is an increase in social inequality between the regions of the country, where the level of wages and living in general is observed in economic centers, while in the remote peripheral regions of the country the level of poverty is higher (Smirnyh and Polyakova, 2020).…”

The purpose of the research is to analyze of poverty in Russia as the most important social problem of our time. The methodology of the study includes an assessment of the dynamics of socio-economic indicators in Russia in the period 2015-2020, as well as a comparison with European countries. It is shown that the problem of poverty is still one of the most pressing and urgent for modern Russia. Despite the outlined positive dynamics in the poverty level of the country's population in 2018-2019, there was a decline again in 2020, due to the deterioration of the socio-economic situation against the backdrop of the Coronavirus pandemic. As a result, the effectiveness of the earlier measures in the framework of social policy has practically disappeared, and the poverty level has practically reached 13%. The systemic lack of financial support for such critical sectors as education and health care has contributed to a series of cuts in order to save limited resources. A comparative analysis of the main socio-economic indicators in Russia and European countries made it possible to reveal the presence of significant differentiation, since Russia occupies the last positions among the compared countries in terms of basic social indicators.

“…Searching for a better economic condition is the major reason for migration currently, particularly on labor migration, including factors such as salary, job opportunities, employment situation, market scale and so forth [8,[22][23][24][25][26][27]. The labor migration rates are higher for the highly educated and the young, with most being unmarried [27][28][29]. In the North and East Russia, highly qualified personnel accounted for quite a large number of the immigrates [7].…”

Russia has experienced population decline in years and the economic development in Russia is largely restricted by labor shortage, particularly for the Far North and East region. In order to explore the migration mechanisms, six socioeconomic factors were selected to explore the influences on the net migration. Data from the 82 regions covering four time periods (2000, 2005, 2010 and 2015) was processed use spatial panel econometric analysis and the time-period fixed effects Spatial Durbin Model (SDM) was selected as the best fit model after tests. The results indicates that, unemployment and infant death rate are significantly negatively associated with net migration, while urbanization rate, urban scale and life expectancy are significantly positively associated with net migration; every 100 USD increase in per capita GRP (Gross Regional Product) is positively related with averagely 5.4 net migrates in the region; every 1 year increase in life expectancy would increase 1052 net migrates; every 1sqm increase in urban scale would increase the net migrates by 11.75 and every 1% increase in unemployment would lead to a decrease of 0.54 net migrates. Spillover effect was also found for per capita GRP and life expectancy, indicating that the increase of per capita GRP and life expectancy in neighboring regions can also increase the attractiveness in one region. It can be concluded that better job market, better economic status and health related wellbeing are all attracting factors for migrates and these factors can even make the neighborhood region more attractive for immigrates. Considering the ambitious development plan for the Russia Far North and East regions, related suggestions on attracting migrates are provided.
