Russia Plans Ministry of Sex, Bans Child-Free Ideology Amid Crisis
Russia is taking drastic measures to address its declining population crisis. The government is reportedly considering establishing a “Ministry of Sex” as part of what’s being called a “special demographic operation” to boost birth rates. This unprecedented move comes as the country faces its lowest birth rate in a quarter century.
In a significant legislative development, the State Duma has unanimously approved a bill banning “child-free propaganda”. The new law could impose fines of up to 400,000 rubles on those promoting childless lifestyles. Supporters argue that anti-children messaging is part of a Western campaign to weaken Russia through population decline.
The Kremlin’s aggressive approach includes new Health Ministry guidelines for discouraging abortions, while many private clinics have lost their abortion licenses. These measures reflect Russia’s desperate attempt to reverse its demographic slump, which has been further complicated by recent population challenges.
