After a meeting with historians and representatives of religious denominations, Russian President Vladimir Putin gave several instructions to the government, according to the Kremlin website.
By May 15 next year, the government, headed by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, needs to «adopt measures aimed at promoting the heroes of Russian history and folklore that meet traditional values <…> in printed, souvenir and other replicated products and consumer goods.”
In addition, by September 1, the government must “develop a set of measures to restore” the destroyed local history and military history museums in the occupied DPR and LPR and partially occupied by Russia Zaporozhye and Kherson regions of Ukraine. These museums should “modernize technological and exposition equipment” and hold “modern expositions.”
Also, the Ministry of Education and Science, the Interdepartmental Commission for Historical Education and the Russian Historical Society should consider developing and implementing the training course “History Religions of Russia» into the program of higher education.
In early November, Putin said that history should be taught from kindergarten. “Here, Batman is famous, but some of our heroes is not. It should be in cartoons, in films, in children's literature, it needs to be multiplied, repeated, based on it,” the president added. jpg» class=»mz-publish-context-cite__image» alt=»1″ />«We wanted to write about the world, but the teachers say to rewrite.» Russian schoolchildren are forced to draw postcards for the front
