So you're a skilled worker, or have the potential to be one or just have the cash to leave. What's your choice?
Die in a useless war
Live happily in the west
So what's your choice?
Not even the West. Anecdotally there are tons of Russians hanging out in south east asia. Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand.
I've seen them pretty much everywhere we've been on vacation the last 2 years. Noticeably more than years before the war.
My US employer acquired a Russian one from Leningrad (HOI4 brain rot. i forget the modern name) not long after the war started. The employees were told they could not stay there to stay employed.
Most went to Portugal. Others went to Finland, Turkey, Georgia, and Bosnia.
A couple didn't leave...and didn't get laid off until last Christmas.
