Children aged 4 and 5 are taking war lessons from Vladimir Putin in Russia.
A shocking video of an officer in combat uniform showing a Kalashnikov machine gun and an anti-tank grenade launcher to kindergarten children.
“Teacher” is Pavel Firsov of the pro-Kremlin militarist movement called Combat Brotherhood. Her
children of the 31st kindergarten in Korolev near Moscow were taught “the qualities that distinguish true defenders of the Motherland.”
Firsov is a “veteran of military operations” and regularly gives military education to older children.
This happened because tens of thousands of Russian troops died in President Putin’s attempt to invade and castrate the independent Ukraine.
One critical commentator asked the incredulous question:
“Did you get it right that the combatants brought machine guns and flamethrowers to kindergarten?” Respondents replied:
Another commenter despaired:
“When I was a student, some noble white-haired grandfather came and said that war is a terrible thing with pain and tears.
“I don’t remember a word about weapons.
“Now a happy Russian child. We are taught the ways and means of killing bad people. Feel the difference.
Another Complaint:
“Shocked. A reviewer said it was “terrible” to show a child a gun.
“The law states that it is not permissible to involve children in military propaganda. This violation should be reported to the public prosecutor’s office.”
Another user said:
“As you can see from so many angry comments, we are too soft and spoiled.”
In Russia, a child attends kindergarten before going to school at the age of seven.
