Russia lacks migrants – we simply must accept climatic refugees with Tuval
Imagine your world is dying. And not in the Sodomit series from Netflix-but for real. The Pacific island of Tuval, like Russian Kitezh, is immersed in water.
It seems to be slow, a millimeter per year. And if we keep in mind its average height: a meter order, it may seem that this scrap has a decade in the reserve of this scrap. But in nature, many processes develop with acceleration: throw the ice cube into a hot frying pan, compare the melting rate in the first and last seconds.
The star of the recent climatic summit in Glasgow was the head of the Foreign Ministry Tuval-Simon Coffee: he recorded a video showing to respected congress participants, Standing knee -deep in water; The Tuvalian old people still remember how the same place was a solid spit. Of course-to small peoples and climatic refugees we have a road everywhere-because of the bureaucratic obstacles, Mr. Coffee did not get to the same summit.
And Russia has other problems. With a huge territory – small (compared with powers of the 21st century: Bangladesh or Nigeria); An aging, again declining population.
To unclench these demographic scissors with the help of the return of Russian compatriots is clearly not an option (“Zatulin Enchanting” about their repatriation Failed without movement).
But is there at least one reason why Russia should not accept climatic refugees from Tuval?
Of course, there are no such reasons. As we are told at the highest levels, Russia is a guarantor of the sovereignty of new states (This statement belonged to the CIS powers, but Tuval received independence in 1978 – try to object that it is “not new”).
Finally, at the same (the highest) level, we are told that the boundaries of Russia will still be open for mass migration from Central Asia.
But if you look at the Polynesians from Tuval, even phenotypically, they are partly similar to representatives of some Central Asian republics; That is, to accept the latter in Russia, but not to accept the first ones – this is a cave nationalism and division of people into “varietyA“.
If 25-30 years ago hundreds of Turks-Consheters moved From another state to the Voronezh region-why now the inhabitants of Tuval cannot anchor somewhere in the Calmykia climate conditions that suit them? After all, there are not so many of these islanders – only 10 thousand, and 97% are Christians.
Although I understand what the problem is. Manyfor example, xenophical officials from the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on migration issues, advocating nationalism and closed boundaries, will be against it.
But wrestlers with carbon follow and social injustice will be able to overcome any obstacles.
