Both Ukraine and Russia have plenty of rural landscape. Neither government is trying to shove people into cities against their own will. Occasionally villages try to attract younger people, but those dont really wanna.
(But in both countries, urban people rarely move to villages due to lack of employment opportunities and do move to cities to get jobs.)
- nephihaha 6mo agoMost of Russia is actually uninhabitable due to climate — cold or aridity. Outside Europe Russians are mostly found along the Trans-Siberian corridor and a few other pockets such as Norilsk, Lake Baikal and some river basins. Norilsk itself is an anomaly and is harsh even today.
