a push to attract
They are talking about active (and seemingly successful) attempts to attract certain professionals to the country. In other words a push to import labour of a certain type.

bringing in
This suggestion is for a context having to do with the current push by Medvedev and others to attract foreign specialists to come and work in Russia. (Seems to be "активный" could be omitted, since it's implied by the long list of the types of people being imported/recruited/brought in, but if you don't want to omit it, then something could be found like "intensive" or "fast and furious.")

: The "maxim" (активный импорт технологов, импорт логистов etc.") is rather strange in Russian. However, "bring in (a) skilled workforce" sounds OK in English! Congrat's! However,your translation doesn't reflect their amateurishness(that of the author(s)):)

Thanks, Alexander! I'm allergic to almost all formulations using "активный" in Russian, but I'm sure Judith will also sort it out and find something smooth-sounding in English.
