Putin's representative, Zhuga, said officials also need "patriotic re-education" The first meeting of the new "Council for Patriotic Education of Citizens" was held in Yekaterinburg. Speaking at the meeting, Putin's government envoy to the Ural Federal District, Artyom Zhuga, said that such "education" is needed not only for young people, but also for civil servants. "I think it's no secret to everyone that there are people in government bodies who need to be reeducated and make some adjustments to their work, to their perception of the reality that is happening now," said Joga. As an example, he brought the "Volunteering" project, which has been implemented since 2024 in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Region. As part of the project, officials are given a two-week leave to "participate in humanitarian missions" in the war zone and surrounding areas.
