New children's toy in Russia: "Brainwashing children"

Anton Heraszczenko, an advisor to the Ukrainian Ministry of the Interior, recently shared a video on social media that reveals a new development from Russian propaganda. They've introduced a device named "Smart Kremlin." But, what is its purpose?

This propaganda is so effective that it heavily sways the majority of Russian citizens to support the actions of President Vladimir Putin, who boasted an approval rating of around 80 percent just a few months ago.

Anton Heraszczenko, an advisor to the Ukrainian Ministry of the Interior, showcased the capabilities of the "Smart Kremlin" device in his social media video. This versatile machine can unfurl the Russian flag, sing the national anthem, and solve patriotic quizzes.

"Russia never ceases to brainwash Russian children," commented a Russian politician on Twitter.

Based on a brief video clip, the cost of one of these machines is 375 thousand rubles, or roughly 5 thousand dollars. "In a way, this mirrors what's happening in North Korea and China, where systems control people entirely," remarked one internet user.

The head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, in an interview with CNN, asserted that "By the summer of 2024, Kyiv will defeat Russia in the war". Olexiy Reznikov noted that in the aftermath of this victory, Ukraine plans to become a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The Ukrainian official highlighted that next year's NATO summit will coincide with the 75th anniversary of the creation of the Alliance.
