That’s what they always do. Take land by force then move Russians there.
Sometimes the order is inverse. When a critical number of Russians live in one place (for example, Crimea), Russia has that spiritual strength to claim rights over that land and, if necessary, take it by force.
Well, you move the people on the periphery into the middle of Russia where it’s harder to break away with any familiar ethnic groups, then you move people from the interior who don’t have links to people on the periphery to the periphery.
