The 'Russian Cross' Is Continuing To Reverse

Free Republic  ( Forbes article )

Article discusses how Russian's birth rates are improving.  This is in conflict with the graphic that was mentioned in an earlier post.  However, the mentioned graphic isn't wrong.  There isn't a baby boom in Russia.  There's no longer a catastrophic baby bust that they experienced in the 90's.

Russia still has big problems, mostly of their own making.  Will Russia survive?  Only if they stop aborting so many babies and if they increase economic opportunity.  Is this likely?  Probably not.
