At least he recognizes the problem and knows what to do about it. Most Western politicians respond to falling birthrates with "open borders". I hope Russia can bring up its birthrates, they're desperately needed.

I hope that all white countries( or should I say semi-white countries)
should increase their birthrates. Europe now has the lowest fertility
rate of any continent.

We dont need more average people, just better biological weapons aimed at mud invaders.

European population is at an all-time high historically.

Quality breeding would be a plus, but I highly doubt any current goverment would be so bold as to declare that.

Thus we should discourage White couples from having babies, because they might turn out average?

Several years ago in Germany there was a campaign to encourage Germans to have more children. I saw billboards with a white couple, naked from shoulders up saying 'eins and eins ist drei' (one and one equals three). I don't guess it had much of an effect, but at least the Germans tried. I sense that beneathe all their brainwashing, the Germans WANT to stay alive, but they have no leadership. Certainly curious how when I grew up in the 60's, all you heard about was the population explosion..real panic stuff, but once whites stopped reproducing (or at least the educated women), it dropped. Now you hear the Neocons yap about how America can 'easily take on a population of 400 million.' Good luck to Vladimir. As the historian John Lukacs said, while the desicive event of the 20th century was that America spoke English, the desicive event of the 21st century may be that Russia is white.

Thus we should discourage White couples from having babies, because they might turn out average?

It would be nice, if people do breed , to breed well . We are so far from the correct path that we can't even see it . The direction that society is going is 180 diametrically against the direction we should be going .

Define "breeding well", please. As far as I am concerned every new White baby is well-bred. We are too few to be choosy in this particular moment.

Old Cossacks gain new respect in protecting Russian outposts
GRAEME SMITH

From Thursday's Globe and Mail

MAGILEVKA, RUSSIA — A trespasser appeared in Boris Matrinitski's front yard one morning in early January: A middle-aged Chinese man, wearing an old uniform, trudging through the deep snow. The man wasn't carrying any bags and didn't seem dressed for the cold.

In another place, in another time, Mr. Matrinitski might have offered him shelter.

But this village of Magilevka is just a few kilometres north of the Ussuri River, which separates China from the vast wilderness of Russia's Far East. Thousands of illegal migrants cross the river every year and the Russian government has become deeply concerned about defending its territory
Mr. Matrinitski rushed outside and tackled the Chinese man. He restrained his captive and called the border guards, who took him away.

It's not common for Russian villagers to physically throw themselves at people they suspect of being illegal immigrants. But Mr. Matrinitski is a Cossack, a descendant of the horsemen who defended Russia's borders for centuries, and the Kremlin has recently taken steps to revive the Cossacks' warrior spirit.

"Boris reacted honourably," said Georgy Torhov, 67, commander of Mr. Matrinitski and hundreds of other Cossacks around this village. "This interloper was stopped within the first 24 hours. But we need to react even faster."

Once a proud vanguard of the Russian empire, the Cossacks have dwindled in recent years into a glorified social club.

Their ancestors rode horses, mustered armies and defended the borderlands. Now, many Cossacks ride busses, work ordinary jobs and rarely dust off their ceremonial uniforms.

But motivated by gnawing fears about security along its sparsely populated border areas, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law in December that aims to reinstate the old paramilitary society. After years of repression under the Soviet Union, the new law gives Cossacks broad powers -- and funding -- to patrol the borders, recruit soldiers, organize disaster-response units, assist the forestry service, maintain public order and fight terrorism.

Branches of the federal government already exist for all these functions, but the Cossacks are viewed as an extra layer of protection in a country that feels increasingly nervous about its security and territorial integrity.

Those may seem like unusual fears for Russia, which still has enough nuclear, biological and chemical weapons to theoretically kill everyone on the planet. But Russia's conventional military has dwindled, along with its shrinking population.

Demographers predict that Russia will suffer a sharp decline in population over the next half-century, losing perhaps a third of its people, and the situation will be worst in the Far East. This region's population has already dwindled by 18 per cent since the Soviet Union imploded in 1991, as the empire abruptly cut support for its farthest outposts.

Russia's Far Eastern Military District has lost more than half its motorized divisions since the Soviet collapse, along with a third of its submarines and half its combat ships. One Far Eastern commander recently complained that so many of his planes and helicopters had fallen into disrepair that half of them couldn't lift off the ground.

The looming demographic disaster could make this situation worse. A report by the U.S. Council on Foreign Relations calculated that Russia drafts about one-third of the young men eligible for mandatory military service every year, or about 300,000 men. But the number of 18-year-olds in Russia will decline to 600,000 by 2015 -- meaning that the government may be forced to choose between two unpleasant options: Make tougher rules and draft a higher percentage of the population, or accept a smaller army.

"The demographic situation is becoming a true security threat," said a draft national-security strategy leaked from Russia's Foreign and Defence Policy Council this year.

Komsomolskaya Pravda, a newspaper loyal to the Kremlin, summarized the worry expressed in many parts of the Russian news media in a recent commentary: "China is in no hurry," the newspaper wrote. "It is waiting for a situation where there will be no Russians left on Siberian soil and then, it will be able to lay claims to these territories against immigrants from Asia and the Caucasus."

Even serious academics in Moscow are openly debating whether a Chinese incursion is possible.

"China will invade Siberia and the Russian Far East, and it will be a very disagreeable situation," said Anatoly Vishnevsky, director of the Centre for Human Demography and Ecology at the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Vladimir Portyakov, deputy director of the Institute of Far Eastern Studies, was more sanguine. "The Chinese threat is exaggerated," he said.

In the Far Eastern city of Khabarovsk, the Chinese consulate is accustomed to playing down such concerns.

"There is no reason to say such things," said Fan Xianrong, China's consul general, with a patient smile. "It would never be possible for Russia to lose its territory. Russia is a powerful state. It can defend itself and hold itself together."

Across town, the Cossacks aren't so easily placated. Vladimir Kroukov, owner of a metal works factory, has reinvented himself as chieftain of the Amur Host and estimates he commands 2,000 Cossacks in the Far Eastern region. That's a small force compared with the armies that conquered Siberia in the 16th century for Ivan the Terrible, and pushed further into the Far East in the 19th century.

But Mr. Kroukov said the numbers will grow as the new authority and money from Moscow brings life to the old tradition. He's eager to revive all aspects of Cossack life -- the legendary bravery, horsemanship and military ceremony -- but he's emphatic about their most urgent mission.

"The Chinese are very carefully testing our border, every metre, to see how well it's protected by the Russians," Mr. Kroukov said. "They want to know our system, how strong it is."

The old system in the czarist era involved giving Cossack farmers free consignments of land along Russia's 4,300-kilometre border with China. In exchange for the land, the Cossacks kept watch. They lost this privilege after they backed the anti-Communist forces during Russia's civil war, but leaders such as Mr. Kroukov are trying to reorganize the border villages.

One of the most successful border projects is Magilevka, about 70 kilometres south of Khabarovsk, which has about 300 Cossacks in the district. The local Cossack leader, Mr. Torhov, remembers the skills he learned as a dog handler for the federal border service. The new federal law will give him authority to patrol with Bam, his Siberian hunting dog.

"Now these dogs will get a workout again," Mr. Torhov said.

Of course, some people seem to believe that if the Russian East is not
settled systematically by Russians, China might just forget the place
belongs to Russia. Tired of paying for Russian, oil, gas, and other
resources, it will instead move in and cut out the middleman

Define "breeding well", please. As far as I am concerned every new White baby is well-bred. We are too few to be choosy in this particular moment.

I'll save you the long explanation . Every White baby well-bred, you know better than that ! However , I do take your meaning . The racial demographics are so tragic that you are basically right . Maybe the mormons will succeed , otherwise the outlook is very dismal .

I admit that mine is wishfull thinking, yet at the moment I find it justified. People do not like to hear they are anything but perfect, first class specimens. Especially when they sense they are not. We Nationalists are struggling for acceptance in the minds of White people, anything that turns them away from us is counterproductive.
Then, I would prefer any day the dumbest maleducated White to a nigger Nobel laureate. A matter of loyalty.

This is a VERY encouraging concern and goal on Putin's part. I have been saying for some time that we will not know whether Russia can be the savior of the White race until its leaders openly take a stand FOR the White race. Today, Putin began to do that. This is a clear sign that Putin is on the side of the White race. And if he actually begins to DO SOMETHING about the drop in White population in Russia and next begins to STOP NON-WHITE IMMIGRATION into the White motherland of Russia -- then we will know it.

A White leader in Russia is beginning to openly address the Russian White birthrate. Bravo! I hope he begins to talk openly about the birthrate problem as a problem for the White race. That is what our people need so much to hear from our leaders: that they care about our race, that our race is important.

This is a good day for the White race. We must watch Russia carefully to see if there are more good days to come.

He is the ONLY White leader who seems to be interested in taking this bull by the horns.

We Nationalists are struggling for acceptance in the minds of White people, anything that turns them away from us is counterproductive.

I wish that every WN would realize that point and repeat it a hundred times, ever day . That is a super critical point .

Then, I would prefer any day the dumbest maleducated White to a nigger Nobel laureate. A matter of loyalty.

I agree, absolutley . It is so tragic , what the white race is capable of and the low current situation . Even in the 'low' white , there is infinitely more latent potential than in the most 'advanced' sub .

Putin seems to be very serious about this:

Security Council to meet on Putin's demographic goals in June
16:15 | 11/ 05/ 2006

MOSCOW, May 11 (RIA Novosti) - The Russian Security Council will meet early in June to focus on ways to implement the demographic initiatives that the president outlined in his state of the nation address, the council's secretary said Thursday.

In his annual address to parliament Wednesday, Vladimir Putin urged government to address the growing demographic crisis in the country, whose population the president said was declining by 700,000 people a year.

"The president said the Security Council should convene for a special session in early June to discuss demographic problems," Secretary Igor Ivanov said, adding that the session would draft a plan of action for the next decade.

"It is a complex project that concerns almost every ministry and agency," said Ivanov, who is a former foreign minister.

The United Nations has warned that Russia's population - which stood at roughly 145 million in a 2002 census - could fall by as much as a third by 2050.

Ivanov said that considering that the program would be expensive because it had to be worked out in a way that would not undermine the country's financial stability. He also said it would be a long-term project.

"If we implement the program properly, it will only bring real results in 10 years, if not more," Ivanov said. "It will not be just a one-time investment."

Every budget will have to include allocations for the project depending on the financial situation in the country, he said.

The plan is to include specific figures and identify financial sources, Ivanov said.

When asked whether plans to cancel conscription deferrals for young men with children under three and pregnant wives would clash with the president's demographic initiatives, Ivanov said the conscription service would be reduced from 24 to 12 months.

"I do not think it will badly affect the demographic situation," he said, adding that the reform would enable young people to look to the future with more confidence when they returned from the army.

In his address, Putin said that monthly child benefits had to be raised from 800 rubles ($29.5) to 1,500 rubles ($55) for the first child, and mothers should be paid 3,000 ($110) a month for their second child, a substantial sum given that the mayor of Moscow raised the minimum public sector wage in the capital to 4,100 rubles ($150) at the start of this month.

The president also instructed the government to give women at least 250,000 rubles ($9,247) in financial aid following the birth of a second child.

This is a lot of money in Russia and it can be a real help. In 20-30 years there will be a whole army of mean mujiks, and the jew will scream. Hail!
