Russian world: murdered childhood, poverty and depopulation

UN International Children's Emergency Fund published a report on the consequences of non-war 4 the region of Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
2/16 These consequences were predictable. Number of people in the already impoverished post-Soviet countries who are below the official poverty line will increase by an additional 10.4 m people by the end of this year.
3/16 Moreover, Russia will be the main driver of the growth of poverty. The population of our country is about 1/3 of the total population of the region, but the increase in poverty by 2/3 will be provided by the Russian Federation.
4/16 An additional 8.3 million Russians will be below the poverty line.

The poverty line in Russian statistics is carried out by Rosstat. It is 13.813 rubles per person. According to official figures, 17.6 million people lived on such incomes in the second quarter.
5/16 If the UN specialists were not mistaken, the New Year in Russia will already be celebrated by 25-26 million beggars, or almost 20% of the population. The real results of the construction of the "Russian world" far exceed the dry statistics.
6/16 After all, thanks to the war started by Putin, the incomes of those whom the dictator mockingly calls the "middle class" are also falling. "Prosperous" teachers, doctors, workers, engineers, self-employed, who live on $300-500 a month per person, make up the majority of
7/16 the country's population. Rosstat published an estimate of household income for the 2nd quarter. In the 2nd quarter, the average amount of monetary income of a Russian citizen amounted to 44,374 rubles per month. In nominal terms, income growth accelerated sharply:
8/16 15.2% vs. 10.9% y-o-y. But inflation completely ate this growth, as a result, the dynamics of real incomes even worsened: -1.9% vs -1.0% yy in the 1st quarter. Show the median income (less than which 50% of people receive) is much less - about 26,000, due to
9/16 the fact that workers have to support dependents: children, the elderly, the disabled, the unemployed.

It is the presence of children that is the most important factor in the onset of poverty. Of the 8.3 million Russians who have fallen below the shameful official poverty
10/16 line, a third (2.9 million) are children. For the families of the poor, war brings innumerable disasters. The loss of one breadwinner due to business closures, falling demand in the consumer market, in the garage economy, or, for example, due to mobilization (& attempts to
11/16 hide from it), means an almost African level of poverty, when there is not enough money even for basic products.

The consequences of rising poverty are also well known. For children from poor families, access to education is drastically deteriorating. UNICEF estimates
12/16 that the entire region will collectively lose about 117,000 years of compulsory schooling (about 2/3 of the losses will be in Russia). This contribution to the development of the "competitive advantages of the nation" is also on the conscience of the ruling clique.
13/16 Child mortality will rise: in 2022 alone, 4,500 children in the region will not live to be one year old. Finally, the birth rate itself, which the regime of traditional values ​​is fighting to increase, will decline rapidly. "The birth rate for most social groups is a
14/16 function of income," says independent demographer Alexei Raksha.

The result of the geopolitical experiments of the state grandfathers will be a national catastrophe and depopulation of the country. Moreover, many of the consequences of this non-war have already become
15/16 irreversible. It is impossible to compensate for them, just as it is impossible to resurrect a person killed in the war.
16/16 The country's only hope for the future is that the current cabal will collapse along with the inhuman social order that has been generating poverty, inequality, dictatorship and war for 30 years now.

#Ukraine 10/21, translation of the early report from @CedricMas of the situation of this morning of 240th day of invasion.
Many thank to Cedric for the daily work done👍

A thread to read 👊🇺🇦
For the 5th consecutive day map of the front hasn't changed. While operations continue with intensity like the campaign of RU strikes against UKR infrastructure.
I will end with the question of Russian looting.
#Ukraine 21/10 (2) In the northeast, little information is filtering. The UKR forces communicate very little (the operations seem to have reduced on their part but it is difficult to know).

#Ukraine 10/19 238th day of invasion,
translation of the daily report of @CedricMas ⤵️
19/10 (1) The UKR blackout does not allow operations to be closely monitored (this may be a sign of a pause).
This is an opportunity to return to the strategic and political situation of Russia: what are Putin's possibilities today?
#Ukraine 19/10 (2) In the northeast, very little certain information: RUS sources announce UKR offensives towards Svatove and RUS in the sector west of Kreminna.
Nothing confirmed.
