Only migrants from Tajikistan are still arriving in Russia.

It is reported that since the beginning of the year, 165,112 people from Tajikistan arrived in Russia, while 91,620 left. The net migration amounted to 73,492 people.
Moldova ranked second in net migration. The statistical increase in arrivals from Moldova was plus 105 people.
All other CIS countries showed a decrease. In particular, Armenia saw a decrease of 12,199 people, Uzbekistan — 10,360 people, Kyrgyzstan — 9,930 people, and Ukraine — 1,785 people.
Experts believe that the decrease in net migration to Russia is mainly due to the war in Ukraine and the mobilization that was introduced, leading migrants to avoid this country. These events have not only negatively affected net migration but also caused hundreds of thousands of Russian citizens to flee to CIS countries.
