The cause of such changes is first of all assimilation processes proceeding at different rates in the case of ethnic contacts between Russians and representatives of other ethnoses of the Russian Federation. Changes in the localization level of the most numerous ethnic groups during the last 50 years confirm the thesis on different directions and rates of ethnic processes. The level of passionarity and cultural and historical differences determine the character of the ethnic interaction between the Russians and other ethnic groups populating Russia.
