Russian President is an extremely popular word around the world. It’s used on business cards, radios, T.V. and all kinds of marketing efforts. Why? Because it means “leader”. And yet, many people doubt the very idea that a country could be led by a single person.
Russian President is also used as a title for political pundits on CNN, BBC and other international media, but some say that this word just doesn’t accurately describe what they do. Russian President is not a “leader” for the whole of Russia. Russian economy is growing, but not at the rapid pace Western economies have been experiencing. Russian State aid to various developing nations is aimed mainly at increasing revenue to pay for the high costs of delivering public goods, balancing declining domestic income because of falling oil prices,and funding foreign missions overseas.
However, Russian State aids are also targeted at ensuring that rising populations of underdeveloped countries receive the basic infrastructure necessary to support economic growth, such as housing, water, electricity and health care. Without these essential public goods and services, a country cannot grow. Along with its social protection programs, Russia seeks to ensure that everyone lives in a relatively comfortable environment, so that growth is not threatened by social conditions. In addition, Russia’s vision is to help protect and promote global human health and prosperity.
As the population of the world continues to grow, the need for skilled labor is increasingly in demand. The ability to properly feed a hungry world that lacks healthy food is a challenge that has been met by Russia and China for years. Now it appears that a new potential leader is emerging, which could herald the beginning of a new era of global health and prosperity. By the end of this decade, it is estimated that half of the world’s population will have been born within the borders of a country that is members of the Commonwealth of Nations (RUS, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand).
Although Russia is a small country, the number of its citizens who speak English and watch American TV is much larger than the population of India, China or Vietnam. Furthermore, many of the world’s largest and most successful countries are located in what is considered to be the Russian sphere of influence. In fact, according to the CIA, Moscow is the principal gateway for Central Asia, giving it a huge share of the regional economy. In addition, all but a few of the nations on this list have nuclear weapons. While some doubt whether having a large portion of world trade in a region with nuclear weapons is a good thing, there is no doubting that having such a large portion of world trade and investments within Russian spheres of influence is advantageous.
As was stated before, Russia is a significant country and a world leader in terms of size and influence. However, it is often thought that because of its size and economic prosperity that it is not a desirable place to live. The truth of the matter is that while there are many people who say the opposite, there are also a significant number of people who have chosen to live in the Russian Federation (FSK) or in parts of the former Soviet Union (FSBO) as their permanent home. There are many reasons why people choose to live in Russia. Perhaps one of the most prevalent of those reasons is the desire to save money; another reason is the desire to be closer to Russian culture, and yet another reason is simply the desire to have a job that pays you well.
Of course, like anywhere else in the world, the total population of a country is important. Although it may be argued that having a large population does not necessarily result in a developed economy, it certainly does impact a country’s standard of living. Total population size will directly impact how quickly Russian goods can be exported to other countries. In addition, the size of a country’s economy and standard of living directly impacts the interest rates people are able to borrow from banks and lenders. Thus, the total population of a country can impact both the export and import of goods, which affects the currency of that country.
Economists argue that it is in part due to the high level of corruption present in the Russian Federation that the country lacks the ability to develop comprehensive policies that are needed to attract investors. However, the lack of a solid social protection system and overall low social capital contribute to the poor standard of living that Russian citizens endure. In order to address these issues, both the private and public sectors must work together to develop sound development strategies. Private sector growth will certainly help finance the development of a solid statistical capacity building strategy that develops effective methods of attracting investors and providing basic social protection to citizens.
