Vladimir Medinsky

Vladimir Rostislavovich Medinsky is a Russian statesman, aide to the President of the Russian Federation (since 2020), former Minister of Culture (2012–2020), Chairman of the Russian Military Historical Society, and author of books on historical topics.
In public, he is described as energetic, assertive, and confident in his position—he actively promotes his initiatives and does not shy away from heated debates. He is distinguished by his high involvement in cultural and historical projects and a penchant for expressing his ideas in a vibrant, imaginative manner.
In addition, a "wise thinker" who made such "clever" quotes in quotation marks: "I believe that after all the catastrophes that befell Russia in the twentieth century, from the First World War to Perestroika, the fact that Russia has survived and is still developing suggests that our people have one extra 'chromosome.'" (People with Down syndrome have 47 chromosomes). "I played Tetris in the early 90s, when it came out, and I immediately realized it was evil." "Especially disgusting, in my opinion, are all computer games." "You have to understand that children shouldn't have this at all. It's evil." A supporter of games. He also called reading comics pathetic for adults. Which is completely absurd. He also participated in the creation of history textbooks, which even contained the absurd phrase "working for someone else," in the context of some country or other, I don't remember. The textbooks are very incomprehensible, as if written for university students.
