Your country doesn't want us, unless they're going to take political asylum seekers while maintaining 38 of our military installations there. I don't guess that's in the cards.

I mean you are right i that i do not know how hard it is to come here. I guess you would need a job offer and some work visa? I just know that we need loads of working people. It is easier if you are persecuted, but that also makes sense, right? So political asylum seekers are taken but are you one?

The US doesn't have a problem that would qualify people for Asylum yet. But man is it going to be wild when hundreds of thousands of Americans are fleeing the Christian Taliban.

Let us hope that i does not come to that even if it might feel too optimistic.

Unless you're Russia, running away with a bunch of secret documents doesn't qualify you for asylum. And I'm not sure anyone is looking to get out of a dangerous country and into the war in Ukraine. At that point I think they'd just go volunteer with Ukraine.

Conclusion from your reply:

Running away with USA mass surveilance classified documents: no asylum

Running away with Roscomnadzor mass surveilance classified documents: yes asylum

Oh, I forgot, also with war crimes classified documents

Lmao the point is the US and Russia will always take defectors in from the other country.

Lol! You can't read my mind?

Sorry, I was thinking about the current political climate, recent political developments and how that may change. As someone else mentioned, unless you're in a few specific fields of employment, it's not happening.
