“First of all, Orthodox Christians should get pregnant, en masse.” The Church asks to make adjustments to the struggle for the birth rate in Russia
Measures to combat the birth rate, including tough ones, should, first of all, affect Orthodox families. The corresponding request of Patriarch Kirill has already been transmitted to the Kremlin. “The Church appealed to us, called on us to separately engage in increasing the birth rate among Russians and Orthodox people. We have taken note of this request, we are thinking about how to organize everything,” said a source in the Presidential Administration, who deals with demographic issues.
These words were confirmed by the Russian Orthodox Church. “We have problems with the birth of new Orthodox people. For example, there are no problems with Muslims, there are even a lot of them. But there are catastrophically few Orthodox Christians born. Therefore, first of all, Orthodox Christians should get pregnant and from the Orthodox, en masse. Vladimir Vladimirovich was asked to do something to achieve such a goal,” a source close to the patriarch told us. He is sure that “in this matter, it is necessary to act by the method of carrots and sticks.” On the one hand, payments to Orthodox parents at the birth of a child, maternity capital should be made “at least 2-3 times higher than for Muslims or some atheists.” On the other hand, severe restrictions (a ban on abortion, the sale of condoms only with passports, and others) should also primarily affect the parishioners of the Russian Orthodox Church.
“There are also things that everyone will have to do, regardless of faith, for example, pay a tax on childlessness. But to correct imbalances in the birth rate and at the same time increase it is the most important task,” the representative of the Church added. According to him, the Kremlin is thinking about how to fulfill the request of Patriarch Kirill.

Perhaps these offspring should be called the Brood XIV and engage in an eternal periodic war?
So it is the low birth rate of “certain” Russians that concerns the state and the church?
The more this war continues the more the comparisons to Nazi germany and Russia become apparent.

The ban on the simultaneous use of two smartphones will be considered next year. Instead of it, a fine may be introduced
We wrote: the State Duma proposed to ban Russians from having and using two or more smartphones at the same time. This is due to the intentions of a number of our citizens to buy a second gadget, install the Max messenger there and not install it on their main phone. Decisions in this direction are expected next year.
“By the beginning of 2026, almost all Russian citizens should have Max on their phones. I think that as of early next year, we can start checking who this necessary app hasn't installed. And start, for example, confiscating devices that do not have it. A ban on the simultaneous use of two smartphones would help a lot here,” a source in the State Duma told us.
At the same time, he does not rule out that softer measures will be taken. For example, fines for those who did not install Max on their smartphone or use a second phone without a messenger at the same time. And, if fines do not help, it will be possible to move on to prohibitions. The Kremlin generally approved the idea of fines and a ban on the use of two smartphones at once. But they were instructed to seriously finalize them and bring them in line with Russian legislation, a source in the Presidential Administration told us about this.

Max (stylized in all uppercase; Russian: Макс, [ˈmaks] MAKS) is a Russian messenger and E-commerce app released by VK in 2025.
As of September 2025, the Max app has been pre-installed on all smartpones sold in Russia, while the Russian communications regulator Roskomnadzor is imposing restrictions of the use of WhatsApp and Telegram. Reports indicate that the application collects and stores user metadata, including IP addresses, contact lists, and activity timestamps, with its privacy policy allowing potential transfer of this data to third parties, including state authorities.
