Russians revive Stakhanovite movement in temporarily occupied Luhansk Oblast – Ukraine's National Resistance Center

Ukraine's National Resistance Center (NRC) has stated that the Russian-appointed administration in temporarily occupied Luhansk Oblast is preparing a "youth Stakhanovite movement". [The Stakhanovite movement was a mass cultural movement of workers that originated in the Soviet Union in the 1930s and encouraged socialist emulation and rationalisation of workplace processes – ed.]

Details: The NRC noted that the Stakhanovite movement involves forcing students at pseudo-universities to work at industrial facilities and introducing "competitions" between groups.

Quote from the NRC: "Russia, having destroyed the future of the region, seeks to drag it back into the past. Alongside this, repression, devaluation of the individual, shortages and poverty are returning to the temporarily occupied territories."
