The 30-year-old is the political editor of Moskovskie Novosti, a leading daily newspaper, and was previously an adviser to the minister of health. He is a political insider who should have a bright future ahead of him in Russia's booming economy. Instead, Mr. Gaaze is preparing to leave. 'I'm thinking about moving to Israel,' he says. 'It's a question of economic opportunities. The system of state capitalism that has grown up here exterminates the social elevator for young educated people.' Unfortunately, Mr. Gaaze's story is far from unique. More and more young, educated Russians are talking about leaving Russia, to live in the U.S., Europe, Israel, Asia, or Latin America. The reasons are myriad: Whether it is the difficulty of setting up a business in Russia, the dearth of political freedoms, poor education or simply better jobs abroad, Russia's talent exodus is gaining momentum. 'We're expected to work 10 to 20 years to buy a flat, or five years to buy a car,' says Mr. Gaaze. 'There are no chances for promotion. It's very hard to set up your own business. Loans cost 20% to 30% a year, and the system is very regulated. The most secure job is to work for the government. But I've done that, and don't want to do it anymore.' The political analyst Dmitry Oreshkin caught the mood among the middle classes with a widely-quoted story in independent newspaper Novaya Gazeta in April. He claimed Russia was in the middle of another wave of emigration to rival that which occurred after the Bolsheviks came to power in 1917. What is disturbing, according to Mr. Oreshkin, is that it is the 'strongest and most gifted people' who are leaving Russia, because they feel they have no place in the state capitalist model constructed by prime minister Vladimir Putin over the last decade. In an online poll of 7,237 Novaya Gazeta readers, 62.5% said they were considering leaving because of discontent with the economic and political regime. Surveys by the Levada Center, an independent research institute in Moscow, find a similar broad trend. The percentage of respondents who were thinking about living abroad rose from 42% at the beginning of Mr. Putin's presidency to 44% in 2009, despite the rise in living standards during that period. The vast majority of those who admitted wanting to leave were under 35 years old, lived in a major city, and spoke a foreign language. While only making up a small percentage of Russia's total population, this demographic also represents the country's economic, political and cultural future. 'Emigration is growing,' says Gleb Kuznetsov, a 33-year-old political analyst and former campaign manager for ruling party United Russia. 'The reason for it is open borders and psychological fatigue caused by the state, which is expressed in disbelief that the system is able to change and become more human. No one believes in the 'bright future' anymore, not the opposition, or even people working for the state.' Mr. Kuznetsov says that it is widely believed, among Russia's young middle-class, that it is easier to establish a business and realize their ambitions abroad. 'My friend, a young businessman, sold his business in the Russian Far East and moved to Venezuela. In his opinion, there are more opportunities to develop there, and the system, although no less corrupt, is more predictable and open than in his motherland.' Media Control According to the Levada Center, while the most common reason people gave for considering emigration in 2002 was financial, by 2009, just as common a reason for leaving was socio-cultural. Some educated Russians feel alienated, for example, by the state's control of television news, film, even the pop music scene. Natalia Rostova is the 32-year-old media correspondent at Slon.ru and a respected commentator on Russian media. She says that many of her friends and fellow journalists are thinking of leaving: 'The state controls the television news, which never criticizes Putin or [Dmitry] Medvedev. Most Russians believe it when the television says the West is our enemy, and that Putin saved Russia from the old oligarchs. They don't know about the new oligarchs. It's hard to see how things will change.' While the state's control of the media is a turn-off for the 25% to 30% of the population who don't actively support United Russia, a bigger incentive to leave is the poor quality of life in Russia. 'It costs so much to set up a business here, and takes so much effort, compared to abroad,' says Mr. Gaaze. 'And family life is harder here. The healthcare system has been ruined. It's very difficult to find a place in schools or nurseries. People are waiting for months in Moscow.' Better-off Russians are increasingly looking to western education for their children. 'Educating your children in the West used to be a fashion', says Dasha, who runs a tutoring agency in London that prepares Russian children for Western private schools. 'Now it's seen as a necessity. The Russian education system is close to collapse. Everything can be bought, from school places to university degrees. But, particularly after the economic crisis of 2008-2009, rich Russians see it as their duty to give their children the option of living and working abroad.' Another turn-off for ambitious young Russians is the insecurity of property rights in Russia. London is full of Russian business people who had to jump on the next British Airways flight when they or their political patron fell out of favor with the state. 'The relationship between the political class and the entrepreneurial class remains uneasy', says Sebastian Lawson, Moscow-based corporate partner of law firm Freshfields. 'If you get out of favor or lose your political patronage, you have to leave quickly and could lose your business.' The rising role of state-owned banks also increases the risk of a state takeover, says Mr. Lawson: 'The economic crisis led to a bigger and more political role for state-owned banks. They are the biggest lenders, and if they decide you've broken your loan covenant, they can take your business.' Reforming State The Kremlin, however, is aware of many of the problems that are encouraging the country's educated young elite to abandon ship. Some reformers appear to be trying to create a less state-controlled and more entrepreneurial economy. Mr. Medvedev has tried to position himself as the representative of the educated middle-classes, and made a speech in April that outlined a bold course for modernizing the economy and reducing the role of the state within it. 'What was interesting is that the program had a timetable,' says Marcus Svedberg, chief economist at East Capital, the oldest and most successful fund manager investing in Russia. 'He said he wanted to cut down the number of state bureaucrats on the board of state companies, and within a few days, Igor Sechin, one of the most powerful of the Siloviki [members of the security services] had stepped down from the board of Rosneft. Things change slowly in Russia, but I think they are changing.' The government also launched a high profile business school and deregulated economic zone, called Skolkovo, to raise new entrepreneurs and attract back those who have already left the country. 'I understand that the main aim of Skolkovo is to persuade entrepreneurs and IT specialists not to leave Russia,' says Mr. Gaaze. Whoever becomes president in 2012, the same small group of politicians and security service officers will still be running Russia, according to many of the young, educated Russians interviewed by the Wall Street Journal Europe. 'This is the key challenge for the government,' says Mr. Kuznetsov. 'Will people who have been holding their positions for a dozen years be able to open access for others, or will we reproduce the Brezhnev model of gerontocracy? By the end of the next presidential term, Putin will be 65, and will have been in power for 20 years. All the key figures of the regime will be over 50. If nothing changes in the staff policy of Putin's elite, then the closest comparison for Russia in 2018 will be Tunisia or Egypt in 2011.'
