Russia is seeking a crackdown on material that supposedly discourages having children. Russian President Vladimir Putin has urged couples to have children as the country’s birth rate drops.

A group of Russian lawmakers on Thursday approved legislation that would prohibit child-free “propaganda.”

“It is important to protect people, primarily the younger generation, from having the ideology of childlessness imposed on them on the internet, in the media, in movies, and in advertising,” Vyacheslav Volodin, the speaker of Russia’s lower house of parliament, or Duma, said.
