I mean, of course it works if you imply that the money is given to families with newborns. Even fact that families will make a baby for that is a fact albeit not exactly noticeable.
5k even in Russia is a pocket change for raising a baby. It will help for a few months, but when it rand out, quality of life of that said baby and their parents not gonna increase. So it is a short game, not a long game.
What really would increase birth rates is stability and security. It is backed in our nature. 5k is not safety or stability. It is a bonus, nothing more.
