Volodin said this during parliamentary hearings on the development of the higher education system in Russia.

The speaker of the State Duma noted that today Russian soldiers protect the security of Russia and save their compatriots.

According to him, the Russian military must understand that the country and the people are behind them.

“Therefore, anyone who begins to distort (information about the conduct of a special operation) and tries to use the department, conducting this propaganda in front of students, must take it and leave,” the State Duma speaker said.

Earlier, Volodin announced a “new wave of Russophobia” in Ukraine and called for Ukrainian officials to be held accountable for violating human rights.
