For what states, I use:

For how many in each state, I use:

| Armenia
1,038 | Kazakhstan
13,158,672 | Russia
14,000,000 – 16,000,000 | ||
| Azerbaijan
10,073,758 | Kyrgyzstan
5,200,000 – 5,850,000 | Tajikistan
9,253,000 | ||
| Belarus
45,000 – 100,000 | Moldova
15,000 | Uzbekistan
29,920,000 |
| Higher Estimate
1,038 + 10,073,758 + 100,000 + 13,158,672 + 5,850,000 + 15,000 + 16,000,000 + 9,253,000 + 29,920,000 = 84,371,468 | Lower Estimate
1,038 + 10,073,758 + 45,000 + 13,158,672 + 5,200,000 + 15,000 + 14,000,000 + 9,253,000 + 29,920,000 = 81,666,468 |
This is comparable to between Egypt (85,000,000 – 90,000,000) and Turkey (78,000,000 – 84,400,000).
But there is more, the Commonwealth of independent states has also an Associate Member, Turkmenistan. 5,610,000 is just between Mozambique and Kenya.
| Higher Estimate
5,610,000 + 84,371,468 = 89,981,468 | Lower Estimate
5,610,000 + 81,666,468 = 87,276,468 |
This is now comparable to Egypt, more than Turkey./HGL
