Russia takes the first place among West countries by number of divorces - 65% of official marriages dissolve.
It should be mentioned that Israel occupies 8-th place by percentage of broken marriages - 26% of Israeli marriages end with divorce. It is not surprising that the majority of divorced in Israel are repatriates from ex-USSR. In fact 4% of young repatriates (20-24 years) are already divorced, while statistics over all Israel reveal only 1% of women, who underwent marriage and divorce in this age. Among 50-54-year old repatriates 21% are divorced (among Israeli women - 16%).
In opinion of experts, the number of marriages and divorces will reduce worldwide because more couples prefer not to register relationships in official instances.
