Anti-war protesters in Russia placed a message about Vladimir Putin’s shameful war on the grave of his parents in St. Petersburg.
It said: ‘Dear parents! Your son is behaving disgracefully!
He skips history classes, he fights with his classmates, he threatens to blow up the whole school. To take action!’
The trick was from Russian art activists known as The Party of the Dead.

The Russian art activist group The Party of the Dead left a note on the graves of Putin’s parents that read: ‘Dear parents! Your son is behaving disgracefully! He skips history classes, he fights with his classmates, he threatens to blow up the whole school. To take action!’
On their social networks they announced: ‘This morning a group of unidentified people approached the parents of a child to demand that they take educational measures against their son.
‘The message was left at the Serafimov cemetery in Saint Petersburg.’
The group expressed the hope that the dead parents “would take it with them one day.”
The message was left at the Serafimov cemetery in St. Petersburg, according to the group’s social media.
In an interview with Media.az in June 2022, activist Maxim Evstropov said: ‘The Party opposes the exploitation of the dead, [and is] against the attempts of the living [people] to seize your votes.
‘Now we are focused on actions against the war.
‘What is happening in Ukraine now is an absolutely senseless massacre.
On the group’s social networks they announced: “This morning, a group of unidentified people approached the parents of a child to demand that they take educational measures against their son.” In the photo: Vladimir Putin, the father of the Russian president, and Maria Putina, his mother.
‘To justify all this, supporters of [Putin’s] The so-called ‘special operation’ brazenly reuses the dead, referring to the Second World War, which for some reason they are eager to repeat.
‘At the same time, the Russian invaders… bomb cemeteries like Babi Yar in Kyiv, and the bodies of their soldiers simply rot in the fields…’
The message on the grave of Putin’s parents comes as the mobilization has triggered a surge in protests over the war in Ukraine.
