Just 38 percent of respondents "definitely" support the actions of Russia's Armed Forces in Ukraine, the survey by independent pollster Levada Center conducted late August found...
The results come as Russia's 2024 presidential election looms, scheduled to be held on March 17 next year. Putin is expected to soon announce his bid for a sixth overall presidential term. Per constitutional changes made prior to the war in Ukraine, Putin may remain in power until 2036.

After his remarks, Peskov wasn't seen in the public eye for three weeks, despite typically holding daily press briefings and providing comment to the media.
State run media cited Peskov as saying that his remarks had been misinterpreted and misreported...

I’m in the middle of an Abbot and Costello routine.
“and do Western countries also assassinate political opponents and anyone who criticizes the Leader?”
Some have been known to indict popular political opponents.
Ignore his deep state MIC ass. There’s no fixing stupid.
Any Putin fans got Russian citizenship?
“...to give the illusion that they’re a free country...”
So, like Canada or the USA, then ?
The deep-state warmongering Kremlinists have killed +200.000 Russian citizens (soldiers) so far in their botched invasion of Ukraine.
No wonder the Russian mothers are starting to wonder... “where are our kids”!?
18 months of war for nothing. Russia still has what it had stolen from Ukraine in 2014 : Crimea and Donbas. Today, they have basically nothing more! So why did they sacrifice 200.000 Russians and 70.000 Ukrainians? For what?
Complete madness. The Kremlin is a warmongering clown-house.
Good one poop!
The Ukrainian government does not want a Trump now or in the future (Vivek Ramaswamy) to threaten the massive kickbacks (for the Biden crime organization) in return for vast “donations” from the U.S. military-industrial complex (financed by U.S., not E.U., taxpayers via hyperinflation). Globalist (not U.S.) insiders like Blackrock, mini-me Alex Soros, Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, et al., are making big investments for political connections and insider info for the future redistribution of Ukraine. Zelensky has specifically mentioned Blackrock in his blogs to the nation as a key player in the “rebuilding” of Ukraine. A backpacker friend of mine who hates Trump recently praised Buffett for donating money to rebuild a town square.
Today Putin was on Russian state TV whining that the CIA tricked him into invading Ukraine. Too funny!
C’mon, we all know the Russians love Uncle Vladimir. /s
Why does Russia have elections ?
Why does Russian have wars of aggression?
do Canada and the US assassinate opposition politicans?
do they change their constitutions so one guy can be in charge until 2036?
guess you guys were too blind to notice those important differences
What Putin’s VDV doink? LOL!
Who to believe, Putin or the CIA?
Here's the reality:
Putin visits his hometown! You’ll never seen Joe Biden receive a response like this.

there were 2 questions there
you answered neither one
Putin was whining like a child today. Sad.
Russia and the usa have similar rigged elections
“We’re American. Talk to us about Biden’s approval rating.”
You know, they do seem to be far more interested in Russia, a country halfway around the world, but NEVER have a bad thing to say about Western leaders. And beyond that, they mostly seem to HATE us Trump supporters.
