Description
As moved as he is impressed, seven-year-old Ivan climbs onto the stage at his school near Moscow. Anatoli, a former Wagner member returning from the Ukrainian front, poses for a photo with him and hands over a flag signed by fighters from the paramilitary group, a thank you for gifts and letters sent by the schoolboy to the front line. Events like this have become common as the Kremlin rallies its youngest citizens to support the "special military operation" and embeds its narrative into the curriculum. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
