Not just illegal immigrants, though. Indeed, Russia also appear to have a good amount of legal immigrants. Being the most developed country in the region must do that to places. Yep--especially considering that many, if not most, immigrants to Russia can also speak Russian due to decades of Russian and Soviet influence in their countries.

Makes sense - so they have a linguistic leg up. Perhaps this will lead to more cooperation and cultural ties between the post-Soviet states.

Yes, this certainly could result in more cooperation and cultural ties between the post-Soviet states-- if Russia avoids trying to dominate the other post-Soviet states, that is!

If they are willing, it can succeed - a success that may well be guaranteed by the presence of the Soviet Army.
