Plenty of them are middle class or lower. It’s not that hard for a Russian citizen to get a work visa in the the EU.

And while half of them understand they are in the EU because Putin’s ideology made Russia a shithole, despite having all the means to be a developed country, the other half suffers from a terminal case of cognitive dissonance.
