Metadata
Note There will be residents of this country who are counted as "born abroad" and / or "foreign nationality" because they were born or are descended from residents in other republics of the former USSR before it was divided in 1991. Therefore, there are values that indicate more the geopolitical change rather than the trend of immigration, since before 1991 the former USSR included 15 countries: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Estonia, Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan. The figures for the total population refer to 1 January of the year indicated by the statistical institute. Data on the total population in 2015 and 2016 do not include the occupied territory of the Crimea and the city of Sevastopol.
