Poorer countries in the neighbourhood could solve the problem by sending their excess labour to Russia if the government adapts regulations and working conditions for migrants to the new situation..&#xD;&#xD;High unemployment and low wages push an increasing number of the excess labour force in Russia's neighbouring countries to look for a job in Moscow, St. Petersburg or other Russian cities. The average monthly salary in Tajikistan, for example, is US$13 compared to US$200 in the Russian Federation. &#xA;&#xA;At least one out of three households in countries like Tajikistan and Moldova count a migrant worker in Russia sending home an average of US$100 per month.
