Vladimir Putin is accused of directly brainwashing children in Russia with an alternate version of reality.
The Russian president faces the claims after he met a group of 'high-IQ' children from all over Russia at a school in Kaliningrad in the province of the same name on the Baltic coast.
Putin, responsible for the death of thousands in Ukraine, took an hour-long Q&A and said he was shocked children did not know that Ukraine was once a part of Russia and the Soviet Union.
