Mironov: the increase in the number of large children provided people with acquired citizenship

In Russia may change the approach to accounting for large families. This was stated in an interview with the information portal NEWS.ru, State Duma Deputy Sergei Mironov. He is sure that the increase in the number of such families in the country is associated with the acquisition of Russian citizenship by former residents of Transcaucasia and Central Asia.

The MP believes that the new citizens of the country ensured an increase in the number of large families by about 30 percent. After all, over the past 4 years, about 4 million people from five countries of Transcaucasia and Central Asia with a traditionally large number of children received Russian passports.

Mironov also suggested paying attention to the growth of large numbers of children in the UK. There, he was influenced by visitors belonging to the Pakistani, Somali and Afghan diasporas. This led to serious consequences, according to the speaker.

It is important to have complete and reliable information on population growth. In demographic measurements, individuals with acquired citizenship should be taken into account separately. Then it will be possible to adequately respond to the changing situation in the country.
