  "account": "The Kremlin is creating a ranking system for \"traditional values,\" placing patriotism at the top, according to Alexander Kharichev, the head of the Russian Presidential Administration’s department for monitoring and analyzing social processes. This hierarchy will be included in a bill focusing on patriotic upbringing and civic education, he said during a symposium titled \"Values of the Future: From Definition to Actualization.\" Kharichev emphasized that the core values include patriotism, continuity of generations, and the responsibility for one's homeland. The bill, almost finalized, is set to be presented to the State Duma, Russia's lower house of parliament. The list of \"traditional values\" is detailed in a presidential decree from November 2022, with life, dignity, human rights and freedoms, and civic consciousness following patriotism. A committee in the State Duma approved a bill in November 2026 imposing fines for discrediting traditional values, targeting social network owners and not users, according to Meduza.",
