The "civilization code" of Russians
Kharichev also spoke about the "civilizational code of Russians." According to him, the presidential administration, together with historians and philosophers, identified 56 characteristics of the Russian people that have been traced back centuries. These are faith (serving a higher purpose), Motherland, truth, family (harmony between the individual and the group), and will (freedom of choice).
