Starting in the 2027-2028 academic year, ninth-grade students in the so-called “lpr” will not be allowed to take the general state exam until they pass an oral exam on russian history. The russians are resorting to any means necessary to once again negatively influence the worldview of Luhansk youth. The exam will be held between January and April, after which students will find out whether they will be allowed to take the final assessment.
The invaders are using other, simpler methods in higher education institutions. They are hiding their campaign to encourage young people in the so-called “lpr” to go to war under the guise of career guidance events. Instead of meetings with employers, they organise talks with the military. In particular, in Starobilsk, they meet with representatives of the russian National Guard, who promise career prospects if you stay alive.
