Russia is looking to add Immigrants with similar values and ideology as Russia. Based on posts here, I feel like a lot of The Coli would fit in.
From the translation:
As a result of the conference held in Moscow on February 14, dedicated to ideological immigration to Russia, it was announced the creation of a Coordinating Headquarters for assistance to immigrants from NATO countries. This decision may give rise to a new direction in the migration policy of the Russian Federation, the main task of which will be the resettlement of residents of the United States and the European Union who are friendly towards Russia towards Russia.
As an incentive for resettlement in Russia, D. Gusev at the end of January proposed to provide immigrants from the United States and Europe with 10 hectares of land, hoping that up to 7 million people could take advantage of this offer. This proposal was not mentioned in the announcement about the creation of a coordinating headquarters for ideological immigration. Although the work of the headquarters was planned to be discussed at a closed meeting with representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Since it will most likely not be possible to quickly increase the birth rate, the only way to make up for the demographic losses is immigration, that is, the resettlement of the population to Russia for permanent residence. But it obviously needs a selective approach based on ethno-cultural closeness with the settlers. Mass immigration of people with different cultures from the Asian countries of the CIS, which still has a predominantly labor form, will lead, and in the most attractive regions for migrants, is already leading to a change in the ethnic structure of the population. As a result, there is a worsening of the crime situation, an increase in the number of conflicts with the local population and representatives of other ethnic diasporas, and an aggravation of interethnic relations. Moreover, in the case of immigration from the territory of Ukraine or Moldova, where the Orthodox population is mainly ethnically close to Russians, nothing of the kind is observed.
The same role can be played by “ideological” emigration from Western countries to Russia, which can be not only political, but also religious. And the latter is actually already happening. In June 2021, RT published a story about Orthodox priest Joseph Gleason, who moved to Russia with his wife Amy and eight children four years ago. In his homeland in the USA, D. Gleason first converted from Calvinism to Anglicanism and founded an Anglican parish, and then, together with his wife and the whole parish, converted to Orthodoxy. In 2015, when the U.S. Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage in all 50 states, the Gleesons decided to move to an Orthodox country that bans same-sex marriage and allows homeschooling. And it was Orthodoxy that played the main role in the choice of Russia. In 2017, the Gleesons moved to the village of Ivashevo, Borisoglebsky district, Yaroslavl region, where the family runs their household, its head serves in the local church in Krasnovo and teaches English at the Varnitskaya gymnasium in Rostov the Great.
Orthodox Americans are also settling in other cities of Central Russia. So, in October 2021, a large American family of John and Anna Platt moved to Sergiev Posad, in which at the time of the move there were 9 children. The reasons for emigration were the policy of the American authorities aimed at destroying the traditional family, the Black Lives Matter movement, which terrorizes the white population, and LGBT propaganda. “At the school where our children studied,” quotes the same RT Anna Platt, “students were asked to think about who they perceive themselves to be and want to be: a boy or a girl.” Their choice of place of residence, in addition to good ecology, was due to the fact that Sergius Lavra is located here.
