A new initiative from the Russian regime has suggested newborns in the country should be wrapped in a Russian flag after birth.
Each newborn child should be issued with patriotic gifts in the white, blue and red Russian tricolour, fanatical pro-war MP Tatyana Butskaya said.
Butskaya, deputy chairperson of the Russian parliament’s committee on Family Protection, Fatherhood, Motherhood and Childhood, explained that newborns across the country should receive the gifts from next year.
She said: ‘This is when you are a patriot from birth. This is when you have a tricolour, a coat of arms, your first clothes, which say that you were born in Russia, that you are needed for Russia, you are important, you are loved from birth.
‘We really want every child born in any region to be able to receive such a gift.’
Butskaya, 49, has also drawn up a blueprint for Russian employers to coerce women to have babies to meet the Kremlin dictator’s aim to massively boost the birth rate.
She added: ‘Large families are becoming the new elite. [Regional] governors should report on the birth rate….
‘Each employer should look at their workplace, what is your birth rate? Here on your team. Do you have one more child this year from each person who can give birth to a child this year – or not?
‘This is exactly how we should pose this question….we will monitor it. In a year, our task is, of course, to increase it.’
This drive comes as it is revealed that Russian nursery school children have been presented by war veterans with a horrific model of blitzed Bakhmut in Ukraine.
Putin’s forces committed war crimes such as summary executions, torture, and rapes of civilians in the Ukrainian suburb.
This was given as the under sevens in the Aksaysky district of Rostov region were ‘initiated’ into Yunarmia – a junior army force, set up in 2015 to keep children out of trouble while indoctrinating them in militarism and patriotism.
Some 1.6 million children belong to Yunarmia – which has been likened to the Hitler Youth in Nazi Germany.
The replica of the Bakhmut war scene was intended to show the children ‘one day in the special military operation’ unleashed by Putin on Ukraine.
It shows residential blocks of flats in the once-peaceful Ukrainian community smashed by Putin’s forces.
‘The children were very happy with such a gift,’ said the Yumarmiya press service.
Yet it appears sick due to the well-established grotesque war crimes of Putin’s men in Bakhmut, from where Russian troops were eventually removed by Ukraine.
