Thousands of pregnant Russian women and their partners have been migrating to Argentina since President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine
BUENOS AIRES—Thousands of pregnant Russian women and their partners have been migrating to Argentina since President Vladimir Putin ordered, inspired by the hope of building new lives far from his autocratic and increasingly isolated nation.
The chance to begin anew over 8,000 miles away from Russia has led more than 22,000 mostly middle- and upper-class Russians to make the circuitous journey to this capital city since January 2022, according to Argentine government migration figures. Officials here say the women have been arriving in growing numbers and giving birth, which bestows immediate citizenship on newborns as well as temporary residency and work permits for their parents.
