Russia has announced that it will offer asylum to individuals fleeing countries that promote neoliberal ideals that contradict traditional Russian spiritual and moral values, as outlined in a decree signed by President Vladimir Putin.

Russia has announced that it will provide a safe haven for individuals seeking refuge from neoliberal policies in their home countries that contradict traditional Russian values. A decree signed by President Vladimir Putin grants foreign nationals the right to apply for temporary residence in Russia without adhering to the usual quota or language requirements.

The decree specifies that applicants can cite their rejection of policies promoting "destructive neoliberal ideals" that clash with Russia's spiritual and moral values. These values, outlined in the country's state policy, encompass immigration, homosexuality, and gender fluidity.

In 2019, Putin criticized German Chancellor Angela Merkel's liberal immigration policy, stating that it allowed migrants to commit crimes with impunity. He also expressed concerns about the West's embrace of homosexuality and gender fluidity, deeming it excessive.

The decree marks a significant shift in Russia's immigration policy, inviting those who share its conservative values to seek refuge within its borders.
