Alexander Clarkson  They could be regenerating at that rate cutting hospital stays and raiding prisons and adding that on top of contracties. But as for entirely new hires I don't think there's enough secondary data to support it.

But labor participation has remained sort of similar throughout. I don't think there's enough people there to sustain over 350 000 a year worth of almost entirely male recruits that's being claimed. And again the figures include cohorts that are unrecruitable.

We also have population decline in 2023 by 530 000 and pensioners increase by 575 000. Which is the real big reason behind Russia's unemployement decrese. Now those 30 000 predominantly male recruits could be hidden in some growth of labor participation.

I have issues with the statements that Russia is recruiting 30 000 for the war every month. If we looked at the unemployed statistics for 2022 and 2023 we see a decrease by almost 520 000 in 2022 and 560 000 in 2023. This is for all unemployed ages 15-72 with >50% being women.
