The president recounted his family history, telling students about his ancestors who lived through World War II. According to Putin, his grandmother was shot by a Nazi soldier, but even as she was dying, she thought about her husband and told Putin’s grandfather “not to cry” so as not to upset her in her final moments.

“Do you understand the depth of these relationships between ordinary people, this love?” the president stressed, noting that even in the face of death, his grandmother continued to care for her loved one. “How can we not take this as an example?” the Russian leader added. Putin also said that all members of his family felt deep respect for each other and had a “strong inner culture.”

Putin also said he believed that most families in Russia were like that. “And here I understood why we won the Great Patriotic War,” the president said, referring to the Soviet Union’s fight against Nazi Germany in World War II. “You cannot defeat a people with such a mentality,” he said, adding: “We were absolutely invincible. And we are still like that.”

President Putin's statement comes as Russia has been embroiled in a conflict with neighboring Ukraine for more than a year and a half. The latest developments show that Ukrainian forces have been unable to penetrate Russian defenses in nearly three months since Kiev began its much-hyped counteroffensive./.
