In this mix, you forgot to account for the proportion of Russians in Russia proper, and, for their future prospects.
Russians are a rapidly shrinking population due to a very low birth-rate and short life-expectancy. (It's the vodka -- diminishes the sex-drive and leads to early funerals.)
If the current one-child-per-family trend continues, there will be only a half as many Russians by the year 2050. Moscow will then be a predominantly Islamic city with five-children-per-family.
What are the implications of this? -- Impossible to say. The only certain prediction is that current trends remain.
