Guest worker culture could replace population

Russia has one of the biggest immigrant populations of any country in the world and they are vital for the country's economic well-being. Despite this, many native Russians remain opposed to the idea of foreign workers.
Unless a country is willing to integrate guest workers into their society they should steer away from it. Guest workers have children in the guest country and the children automatilly become citizens of the guest country. Eventially, guest workers increase in number to a point where it is not politically correct to ever send them home. They gain political power, as in the U. S. A., and eventially force their way into full citizenship. If guest workers are wanted, why not screen them and offer them immigrant status? A Guest country should not accept the labor but not desire the worker as a potential citizen..If they are good enough to do the hard work why would they not be good enough to be a full legal immigrant/citizen? Don;t keep these workers in limbo. Accept them or send them home and do your own work.
But that is the point, they or their offspring should never aquire nationality. Russia should be an Oasis for them to visit, with controls placed on the guest worker skills, so that they match our needs. This then provides a win win situation economically. Cultures have an overarching property, which meens integration can either take generations, or never really occur at all, as cultural groups develop in the host nation. Causing un-integrated pockets that then are the breeding ground for tension with the host. That is why the rules need to be set upfront, you come you can work, you can make some cash and you can send it home, or remain a guest. But what you will never become is a citizen based on guest work. The only route to citizenship, should be a tightly controlled route, where you accept the host culture totally. Such new citizens need to be in such small numbers that they cannot have any cultural affect. At present we have a problem with traders in phoney marriages to Russians. This needs control, not letting happen.
Russia, like all of European countries, except for UK and Sweden, has to fight the mass invasion of peoples from other countries if their unique cultural and ethnic identities are to survive. UK and Sweden have already made a decision to cease being the historic European societies they once so proudly were. The 21st century will witness a massive assault on Russia and other European countries by these "guest workers" and "asylum seekers". It is a new kind of war that has been launched on Europe, and Europe must fight the invasion as their ancestors fought foreign invaders. These wandering people must never be permitted to change the identity of Russia, or any European country. United States of American is an example of what will happen when a society is too cowardly to defend itself. White America made a decision not to resist the mass invasion of Latinos storming across their southern border, and the demographic projections show that whites will be a minority in their own land in four decades. In 1965 whites were 90% of the American population. Today, they are barely 65%. Russia should learn from the experiences of America, Sweden and UK.
I think we should welcome guest workers and that is the whole point, they should be guest workers, who are providing services for a profitable return. We shouldn't have the idea or notion about integration. It should just be an equtable trade agreement. Then there isn't any cultural pressure and everyone is happy, because the deal is known upfront and remains the same deal all the time. The demographic argument is quite frankly a load of rubbish. Bums on seats mean nothing! We need to aim for an afluent society with critical mass and good life expectancy and standards. Shipping in and integrating bodies is a recipe for disaster and should never be done. We will stabilise around the 140 million mark and grow after that, we can look forward to a joung vibrant country that is self sufficient. We can leave the integration route to the EU and US who have destroyed their native populations with immigrants to keep the wage rates down. Guest workers are good for Russia and good for their home countries. We need to allow wealth to flow to the home countries for them to develop, not rip out their talent and leave them in a mess.
