On October 27, OSU hosted the International Round table organized by the expert club “Eurasian Crossroads” on the topic “Modern Trends in the Development of Migration Processes in the Eurasian Space”.

Dmitry Kulagin, Vice-Governor, Deputy Prime Minister, Head of Governor's Office of the Orenburg region addressed the audience with a welcoming speech. He stressed the importance of developing good-neighborly relations between the countries, as well as the importance of a civilized attitude towards foreign workers.

Venaliy Amelin, director of the OSU Research Institute of the History and Ethnography of the Southern Urals pointed out in his speech that the participants would discuss problems concerning many countries. Migration processes have been developing since the creation of the Eurasian Economic Union. The residents of Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzia and Russia have a number of benefits when working on each other's territory compared to the citizens of other states, like Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. They do not need to obtain a work permit, to verify diplomas and qualifications in most specialties.

Venaliy Amelin has also shared the results of the sociological research “Social portrait of a migrant. Cultural adaptation and integration or religious radicalization”. An average migrant working in the region is a married man of about 30 years (71.3 % of the total) with incomplete secondary or secondary (47 %), vocational (33.1 %) education, engaged in trade (47.8 %) or construction (28.7 %), who abstains from alcohol (78 %), frequents the mosque (68.4 %), that is religious but not really interested in politics.
