All the industries of Russia are struggling with the lack of labor. In view of this, Russia is preparing to import 10 lakh Indian workers by the end of the year. “As far as I know, 1 million experts from India will come to Russia by the end of this year.”
There is a huge shortage of those working in the Swardlovsk region of Russia, which will be fulfilled by the arrival of Indians. There are many industries in Swardlovsk. There are also factories to make arms and equipment related to the army. The Ural Wagon Javod (T-90 tank making company) is also here, but Alam is that there is no one to work. Due to the war with Ukraine, most of the youth here have been admitted to the army and some do not want to go to the factory.
