Reply to comment by chrisdolan622 in [OC] Ethnic Russians in the Russian Federation, 2021 Census by greensino

the problem is that russia has used the strategy of replacing local ethnicities with ethnic russians for decades in order to validate their claims

Then perhaps looking at the data would help us to better understand that problem

The problem is that locals didn't know much and couldn't build shit, the russians who came or were sent there were building bridges, tunnels, power plants, railroads, mines, fucking spaceport, as well as a shit ton of civil infrastructure and factories, universities and all that. If this is how people "validate their claims" than I guess other countries did that wrong.
