Touched on the British newspaper The Times to the subject of the phenomenon of brain drain in Russia, and conducted an interview with a young Russian with a high level of expertise, plans to leave the country and emigrate to Canada.

Take the newspaper from the computer programmer Stjepan Hezov - who at the age of 29 years - an example of the phenomenon has become known in Russia termed as the "time to leave the country." Hezov intends to take his wife and travel to Canada, where he will complete his studies and settled there after the study.

The paper describes the class that you want to emigrate from Russia, as a layer of highly qualified young people, who have opened their knowledge after the fall of the Soviet Union in the era of Vladimir Putin when he took over the presidency of Russia, and were surprised by the system, disappointing and corrupt.

"There are more than one hundred million adults in Russia, who are not who can lead the country? It is humiliatingStjepan Hezov"It is believed that five Hezov paid in either high school or left the country and think carefully about this. And supports the paper's belief Hezov exploring conducted by the Levada Center of Russian opinion polls known whose professionalism and scientific approach, which said that 22% of the Russian people want to leave the country, compared with 7% in 2007.

The survey shows that the proportion of people wanting to migrate from the age group under 25 years has risen by 39% from 2007.

The experience Hezov in dividing his life as a young man in the prime of life very difficult, where he founded a computer but could not continue under the weight of heavy taxes imposed by the Russian government's small business special, while enjoying the company of Russian state benefits are great, but news of the intention of Putin's return to the presidency was the straw that broke the camel's back for him.

Says Hezov "I did not think that the survival of (President Dmitry) Medvedev will push the situation here to take the direction of more liberal. But there was a belief that if he remained in office there may be a chance to do so, but if he ceded the presidency to Putin, this does not mean that something was wrong , but also means that the whole situation was wrong. "



And supplements, saying "someone took the presidency for eight years should not return to it. I've stayed in power for too long, and forgot what the meaning of ordinary life. There is a prevailing belief today, and the idea that he (Putin), the only one capable of leading the country. This is pure idiocy. There are moreone hundred million adults in Russia, who are not who can lead the country? It is humiliating. "
