Children train with automatic weapons, dance with the letter “Z”… Russia “Putin strengthens” shivering patriotic & military education.

Soldiers who have had military training in school are far more capable than those who have not. If we want peace, we must prepare for war.

Late last year, Shakhagoshev, deputy chairman of the ruling United Russia party, responded to an interview in the Russian newspaper Izvestia: “Russia is strengthening military education.

Russia is strengthening military education. The Ministry of Education last year compiled a new educational program for schools attended by 7- to 18-year-olds, which outlines the following guidelines: 1.

By January 1 of this year, teachers at each school will receive military training.

By September, students will be taught how to use automatic Kalashnikov rifles and how to throw hand grenades.

∙ 140 hours of basic instruction and learning how to respond to nuclear and chemical weapons. ……, etc.

The situation in Ukraine has obviously had an impact. Contrary to the expectations of President Vladimir Putin, who initially thought he would be able to conquer Ukraine in a short period of time, the Russian military is unexpectedly struggling with the support of the West. They’re suffering heavy losses and are severely short of troops.

President Putin hurriedly mobilized 300,000 reserve soldiers. Wagner, a private military company, even deployed rapists and other heinous criminals. Even so, the situation is such that they cannot make up for the shortage of troops.

The letter “Z” is everywhere in the school.

In Russia, there is no pains to ensure patriotic education. The situation at an elementary school reported by the independent Russian media “Meduza” is bizarre.

The video reported by the media shows children holding Russian flags of three colors: white, red, and blue. In the rear window is a ‘Z’ symbol, which is believed to be the first letter of the Russian word ‘for victory. A teacher calls out, “Let’s fight alongside President Putin!” the children shouted, “For the President, for the nation! For the President, for the nation!　Ulla! （For the president, for the nation! ‘” (The same teacher).

The letter “Z” can be seen everywhere in the school. Children wear shirts with the letter “Z” and sing the patriotic song “Forward Russia” with enthusiasm. They make a human figure of “Z” with the national flag and dance in praise of President Putin.

The children were given video materials titled “Guardians of Peace. The girls ask a state TV presenter questions about the “Special Military Operation” (the Russian name for the invasion of Ukraine). The video claims that the attacks on Ukrainian civilians by Russian troops reported by Western countries are “fake. It also claims that pro-Russian residents of Ukraine are being unjustly oppressed.

Itsuro Nakamura, professor emeritus at Tsukuba University and an expert on Russian affairs, explains.

What is taking place in Russian schools is brainwashing children to support President Putin. The children are brought up in a state where they stop thinking and are made to become people who are convenient for President Putin. If Ukraine comes under Russian rule, the same kind of education will take place.”

President Putin is said to be seeking a fifth presidential election in March 2012. If the dictatorship continues, Russian children will be forced to stop thinking more and more, and a quagmire war will be supported.
