Vladimir Putin a folosit o analogie din regnul animal pentru a descrie războiul din Ucraina: „Acesta este lanțul trofic”

Vladimir Putin compared the war in Ukraine to a food chain, depicting Russia as an orca and Ukraine as a polar bear. He emphasized the need for Russian students to understand the world through this analogy during a meeting with teachers. Putin's comments included references to literature and harsh survival practices among northern peoples. However, experts note that there is no scientific basis for his claims, as orcas have not been documented attacking polar bears. The Moscow Times suggests that Putin may have been misled by false images circulated online.
