Russia’s “heroes” face harsh reality at home | Break the Fake

Russia keeps calling its soldiers “heroes,” but the moment they return from the war, many discover that state propaganda does not translate into actual care. In this episode of Break the Fake, host Benjamin Lee looks at Russian veterans complaining about rude clinic staff, shortages of doctors, and the absence of promised benefits. We also examine Sergey Lavrov’s outrage over President Zelenskyy’s open letter to Putin and why Moscow suddenly becomes very sensitive about diplomatic etiquette after years of aggression. Finally, we break down Putin and Lavrov’s rhetoric about the Russian language and how the Kremlin turns culture into a tool of geopolitical pressure. Russia does not defend its soldiers, its diplomats, or its language as honestly as it claims – it defends the propaganda image built around them.
