Targets on Poverty Rate and Ethnic Composition
The speaker discusses the President's goals for poverty reduction, aiming to decrease the poverty rate among families with many children from 30% to 12% by 2030. Additionally, the President seeks to provide extra support to regions with below-average birth rates, primarily central and northwestern Russia with predominantly ethnic Russian populations. This focus on ethnic demographics is crucial as the percentage of ethnic Russians in the population has steadily decreased from 82.6% in 1979 to 71.8% in 2021, highlighting a significant long-term trend that the Kremlin aims to address.
