Russia’s population grew steadily through the 20th century, peaking in the early 1990s. However, since then, it has experienced stagnation and gradual decline. Projections suggest this downward trend will continue through 2050, with population levels decreasing from about 148 million in 1991 to approximately 136 million by 2050.
