Mit Russlands Kindern stimmt etwas nicht

Anna Nemtsova: “One Tuesday morning last month, a 15-year-old Russian boy got ready for school by packing a paramilitary vest, a helmet, and a knife. Before leaving his house, he sent a manifesto to his classmates denouncing gay people and Jews, and quoting a mass murderer along with a white-supremacist conspiracy theory.

“When the boy, identified by prosecutors as Timofey K., arrived at his school, located outside Moscow, he went to the bathroom to put on his gear, which he’d branded with neo-Nazi symbols and racist slogans. Then he filmed himself patrolling the hallways and asking people, at knifepoint, what nationality they were. Several gave the wrong answer, and Timofey stabbed them. Most survived, but a 10-year-old boy from a Tajik family did not.

“Timofey’s attack wasn’t the first instance of brutality among schoolchildren in Russia last month … 

“For years, children in Russia have watched their country massacre Ukrainians and condemn hundreds of thousands of its own citizens to injury and death at the front. As violence has come to surround Russian youth, many seem to have become more violent themselves. Last year, the number of juvenile crimes in the country surged by 18 percent. Authorities also reported an uptick in ‘serious and especially serious’ crime. ‘There is no positive ideology for children in a country fighting a murderous war,’  Ilya Barabanov, a Russian journalist, told me. Instead, the war has amplified worldviews that encourage brutality.

“The ethnic hatred that inspired Timofey’s attack has spread widely in Russia, thanks in part to President Vladimir Putin’s embrace of a militant strain of nationalism. The president has justified the war in Ukraine by appealing to a doctrine known as *Russkiy mir*, or ‘Russian world,’ which makes no room for non-Russians … 

“Putin has claimed that the *Russkiy mir* ideology is based on ‘openness and constant respect’ for other cultures. Yet just this week, his key propagandist, the TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov, called for additional ‘special military operations’ in Armenia and Central Asia in order to maintain Russia’s ‘sphere of influence’—the same pretext for its war in Ukraine. For the Kremlin, other cultures, it seems, are not an object of respect; they are a threat that only violence and aggression can neutralize.

“Timofey’s attack was not an aberration. It is a product of Putin’s dogma, and it has energized Russia’s many networks of ultranationalists and other extremists.”
