Opinion In Russia, the shift in public opinion is unmistakable
Twenty months ago, after Vladimir Putin had launched his full-scale invasion of Ukraine, many high-ranking Russians believed that the end was near. The economy faced disaster, as they saw it, and the Putin regime was on the brink of collapse.

Today, the mood has changed dramatically. Business leaders, officials and ordinary people tell me that the economy has stabilized, defying the Western sanctions that were once expected to have a devastating effect. Putin's regime, they say, looks more stable than at any other time in the past two years.

Moscow paying soldiers’ wives not to protest as Russian public opinion turns on war https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/russia-ukraine-war-latest-putin-losses-b2457235.html See how easy that is? You can find a story saying Russia citizens are for the war and I can find one that says they aren't

That's not a news story at all, just an opinion piece.

Try again.
