What poems Putin will force schoolchildren to read. A few shocking examples.

The President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, announced the necessity of including "patriotic works" by contemporary writers in the lists recommended for schools. This initiative was supported by the directive of the Ministry of Education of Russia. The mentioned order is to be implemented by 2025.

Currently, there is no exact list of works that will be recommended for students to read. However, general guidelines can be found regarding which works Russian schoolchildren will be using. For example, the novel by Vladimir Kazmin "Beauty". This novel describes the resistance of youth against Ukrainian forces during the defense of Lysychansk. According to the author, this novel is a real story that was hushed up in Ukraine.

Also, in 2023, a collection of patriotic poetry titled "Callsign - Russia" was released, which includes works from over 200 authors from various regions of Russia and Belarus. This collection emphasizes themes related to support for Russia and negative aspects of neighboring countries, particularly Ukraine.

It is worth noting that such literature fully reflects the propaganda disseminated via television, but in rhymed form. Critics believe that this phenomenon is graphomania and pseudo-scientific writing.

It should also be noted that Russia is trying to promote its propaganda in the occupied territories by restricting access to uncontrolled sources of information and maximizing coverage of denied settlements with signal.
