Self inflicted braindrain.

Literally draining the brains of the future of the country all over Ukrainian soil.

It’s really sad. Russian scientists, mathematicians, and writers have made so many amazing contributions to humanity over the past few centuries. Now the country is headed for a century of irrelevance and pariah status.
