Russia is not a developed country, why is the natural population growth rate negative?

It's just that the correlation is not certain, and the population growth rate in the United States is relatively high. First of all, it must be clear that Russia is not a developed country, but an industrial country. There are many reasons for the negative population growth in Russia. Personally, it is low birth rate, high mortality rate and immigration.

1. The birth rate in Russia is very low, especially among Russians. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Russia's economy has been very unstable, the private economy is underdeveloped, and there are few job opportunities, but the cost of having children is high. Coupled with the change in the concept of marriage and childbearing, Russian culture is very similar to the West and very individualistic. There is no concept of having more children and raising children to prevent old age. On the contrary, it is too much trouble to have children, and there are many infertile people who marry late or unmarried. Although Putin has taken many measures to encourage children and even reward land and houses, he still can't improve Russians. In addition, the problem of alcoholism is very serious, and excessive drinking can easily lead to infertility. Russia is unwilling to open foreign immigrants to move in. If the population continues to decline at this rate, I am afraid that in another 50 years, Russia's population will be only half.

2. The mortality rate is very high. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Russia has been in turmoil, poor public security, and almost always fighting, local rebellion and terrorism are rampant, and the male population continues to decrease. The disease or accidental death caused by alcoholism is also quite high. Traffic accidents, diseases, crimes, self-sha and other problems also contribute to mortality.

3. Population migration. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the population originally belonging to the joining countries returned to their own countries. Russia's economy is poor, a large number of military enterprises have closed down, and many technical talents have been poached or gone abroad to look for opportunities. Many women go to western Europe for prostitution.
