The Russian dictator also mentioned Jack London in this context.
During a meeting with Dmitry Balanchukov, a Chinese language teacher from the Belgorod Region , Vladimir Putin drew a parallel between the war in Ukraine and the laws of the wild, stating that children need to be taught “what kind of world we live in” using the example of the food chain, where killer whales eat polar bears. “They (killer whales—ed.) eat these bears like they’re nothing. They simply pounce on them in a pod and tear them to pieces. It’s all very interesting. That’s the food chain. We need to tell children about this too, so they understand what kind of world we live in and why we are conducting a ‘special military operation,’—Putin stated as the teacher was telling him about his trip to the North Pole.
Putin also recalled Jack London and the customs of the northern peoples he described, who left the elderly to be eaten by wolves because the tribe could not “carry them along.” “Yes, it all seems a bit harsh, but that’s their way of life,” the Russian dictator added.
The full-scale war against Ukraine unleashed by Putin has resulted in enormous human losses for Russia. According to the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), by July 2026, the Russian army’s total losses had exceeded 1.4 million killed and seriously wounded, unable to return to duty. Currently, the Russian army is losing approximately 6,000 more soldiers per month in Ukraine than the Ministry of Defense is able to recruit.
