USCIS Will Close Moscow Office, Shift Services To Athens
Law360 (February 6, 2019, 5:10 PM EST) - U.S. Citizenship and Immigration
Services will close its field office in Moscow for good and move its
services to Athens, Greece, the agency said Tuesday, citing low demand in
Russia....

It fits what I posted before <http://tinyurl.com/y9c2ufwt>

attractiveness of North America (US and Canada) has decreased by about
half in comparison to 2015, whereas, with regard to Europe, the people
name Germany, Italy and Spain, in descending order of attractiveness.

Now the US officials cite 'low demand' as well.

Meanwhile, there's a growing number of accounts on YouTube and elsewhere
where Russian expats seek "to tell the truth" about their [disillusioned]
life in the North America.

Yes, I imagine that Maria Butina is not happy with her current
accommodations ... but as soon as she's finished telling prosecutors
everything she knows, she'll be free to fly home, to the land where hot
water, plumbing, and heating, are considered luxuries:

Rather, for many of the Americans and Canadians who are living within
facilities that resemble something in between of a pasteboard barn and
a kennel (with 'nice' exterior facing), the usual Russian centralized
hot water and heating would look luxurious, - with such systems you do
not have any personal bother, - just enjoy, for an affordable price.

Most of the multi-apartment living buildings in Russia have centralized
hot water and heating systems. Heating system is functional during cold
time, while the hot water is available throughout the whole year except
a week or two in summer when it's turned off for preventive maintenance.
In some districts and settlements, there may be specific problems and
occasional interruptions in supply, the part of such problematic areas
is about 4% of the total number of houses. About 18% of the whole number
of residential buildings in Russia have no centralized hot water system
but they rather have "standard" gas powered heaters. These are the old
houses built during the great Soviet construction boom since the 1950s.
Such heaters may even be more suitable in some respects, but they are
less preferable from the safety perspective. And about 5% of the multi-
apartment buildings (the most old ones, I suppose) don't have a standard
solution for hot water, so the tenants use some other tools to make it.
These may be electric or gas powered heaters, there's a lot of solutions
in the market nowadays. The data I've cited are from the Russia's service
of routine monitoring and supervision of housing <http://bit.ly/2GhFQis>

These centralized systems are good as long as they are maintained in a
proper condition, and here, the Ukraine, which has the utilities system
essentially similar to the Russia's one, is a notable example. After
the anti-democratic 2014 coup, their systems came to dilapidation.
Now many Ukranians suffer from a lack of hot water and heating and even
organize [helpless] protest rallies demanding from their authorities to
provide them with this stuff.

The minority of the Russians who are living in individual houses provide
their utility needs in an individual way, and there's a great variety of
options and practices in this field.

That's an 'alarmist' BS that cites a non-credible source, - some shoddy
NGO that proudly calls itself 'Russian Union of Engineers'. These are
clownish clumsy folks that in the recent years managed to make quite many
ridiculous claims, after which no one take them seriously. Their agenda
is epatage and attention seeking. Even the greatest Russian oppositionary
Mr. Navalny, whom you must trust, bashed (on another occasion) this RUE
as a bunch of crude idiots <https://navalny.com/p/3946/>.

In turn, the RT staff are leftie prostitutes, they serve the Kremlin for
money, - but since they remain to be lefties in their heart, they love to
pick up various 'alarmist' garbage like this one.

Dude most Canadians have garages, many have hot tubs, I am slightly sweating in my apt. as I type this as it is freezing outside and the heater is doing its job. Also have a gas fireplace. Russians move to Canada not the other way around.

Hey, there's no exit visas in Russia.

Looks like the migration topic makes a real pain for your, so I repost it.

<http://tinyurl.com/ya799trw> romir.ru

One of the Russian public opinion research agencies (a Gallup International
affiliate) monitors migratory attitudes among the Russians for many years, -
and their very recent results are notable in comparison with the pust.

Would you like to change your country of residence in the near future?
----------------------------
2012 2015 2018
Yes 36% 8% 12%
No 64% 92% 88%

The numbers fit to the fact that the Ukraine-related Russian nationalistic
enthusiasm has now passed the peak and rolled back to 'normal' level, - but
the migratory aspirations today have become much lower than five years ago.

One more notable thing they have found is, the most part among those 12% who
express the desire to migrate, vastly prefers West Europe over North America
(62% vs 13% (the rest 25% look towards Asia and other destinations)).

The attractiveness of North America (US and Canada) has decreased by about
half in comparison to 2015, whereas, with regard to Europe, the people name
Germany, Italy and Spain, in descending order of attractiveness.

...

One should know that such polls are not much reliable, even if the pollster
is credible. For most of the respondents, the intentions may be more like
vague ideas rather than specific plans. The most interest is dynamics over
time. The dynamics shows the fall of the popular desire to migrate in general
and the fall of the desire to migrate to North America in particular.

.. the fall of the America image among the Russians can be
explained by the wide spread of the broadband internet in the recent years.
Previously, many America lovers based their attitudes on what they could see
in the Hollywood movies, other professional media production, which paints
very idealized and embellished image of the US. In the recent years, much
more people are getting information from primary non-corporative, various
'amateur' sources, which gives them much more realistic image. ..

You'll feel painful to watch this Kremlin propaganda piece.

<http://tinyurl.com/y5996a55>

.. Tying Crimea to the mainland via the Kerch Strait bridge was a
masterstroke .. the Russians .. built the thing in a time frame that
defies description. / Imagine if this had been an EU project. They
would still be debating the initial engineering plans .. Crimea is
now permanently Russia's. And every bit of infrastructure Russia
builds there ties the two further together and weakens any bonds
Crimea had with Ukraine. The resultant growth and modernization will
make its way, economically and culturally back into southern Ukraine
and erode the hard border over time. ..

...

Indeed, Russia is on the right side of history.
