Russia unveils ‘History of the Donbas and Novorossiya’ textbook and new social studies curriculum edited by Medvedev

Russia's Education Minister introduced a new textbook and social studies curriculum focusing on the history of the Donbas and Novorossiya, edited by former president Dmitry Medvedev. The materials aim to shape young minds with a particular version of history, which some view as justifying Russia's political and military actions in the region. This move underscores Moscow's efforts to promote its narrative on the conflict in Ukraine, raising concerns about the potential influence on international perceptions and future diplomatic relations.
