New textbooks for Russian students state that the 2020 U.S. Presidential election was rigged.
The new textbooks that are reportedly used by 11th-grade students in Russia state Donald Trump lost the 2020 presidential election due to Democrats committing voter fraud.
Marc Bennetts, a foreign correspondent for The Times (U.K.), made the discovery and posted the textbooks on his X account.

Here’s what Newsweek reported:
New textbook for Russian students claims former President Donald Trump lost the 2020 presidential election due to voter fraud committed by the Democrats.
Images from the history book, which is reportedly used by students in the 11th (graduating) grade, have circulated on social media in recent days. Marc Bennetts, foreign correspondent for The Times (U.K.), posted a page from the book on Monday onto his X (formerly Twitter) account, translating that the book said Trump lost the election “as a result of obvious electoral fraud by the Democratic Party.”
Trump and some of his allies are facing criminal charges, accused of attempting to interfere with the results of the 2020 election that President Joe Biden handily won, and Trump’s claims of the election being rigged against him have been widely debunked in courts of law and elsewhere.
Trump has also been criticized for dishing out compliments to Russian President Vladimir Putin, though he has condemned Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Still, some Russian analysts have suggested that the Kremlin may prefer Trump winning in 2024 over Biden.
