Grandson of de Gaulle claims Russian citizenship

In an interview with TASS, the grandson of French Brigadier General Charles de Gaulle, Pierre, said that he wants to become the owner of a Russian passport. The Frenchman wants to do this in the name of the prosperous future of his children.

In this regard, de Gaulle Jr. hopes for a corresponding positive decision by Russian President Vladimir Putin.

"This way we will be able to pass on to them [children] the values that are important to us and also give them a good education. We want to save children from decadence, from the decline of values that is happening in the Western world," he said in an interview.
