How to read this table

Differences between rows allow for tracking the structure of labor migration within the group of patent holders. Comparing the total number with data for CIS countries and Azerbaijan shows the impact of these groups on the total. The columns present data for five years, enabling a comparison of legal foreign labor volumes at the beginning and end of the period under review

What is visible in these numbers

The largest value belongs to “Total — Thousand persons” — 2,049 at year-end; the smallest is “including from CIS countries — Ukraine — As a percentage of total” at 0 at year-end.

The table is 90% filled: Rosstat does not publish every cell, and the gaps are left as they are rather than interpolated.
