Vladimir Putin's approval rating rises to 81.6% since beginning of Russia-Ukraine war, finds survey {firstpost.com}

VTsIOM said it surveys 1,600 people across Russia each day and its weekly polls are an average of responses from the previous seven days, according to Reuters. The poll published on Friday was gathered between 28 March and 4 April, it said.

 

This is in tune with another poll conducted in March by the independent Moscow-based Levada Center, which stated that the Russian president has his highest approval rating among Russians since September 2017.

 

Gudkov said that due to Russia's censorship and the extreme lack of independent news outlets, the high ratings — what many would call shockingly high — for the Ukraine invasion reflected the power of Kremlin propaganda.

 

Despite Putin’s surging domestic popularity, many internationally have condemned him for ordering Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which has displaced more than 10 million Ukrainians from their homes, killed or injured thousands and turned cities into rubble.

 

My opinion:

 

100% approval rate from the Russian public wouldn’t change the fact that this senseless illegal invasion is 100% wrong! it doesn’t bring the dead innocent civilians back to life and therefore these massacres are 100% wrong and constitute unacceptable war crimes despite 100% approval by a primitive, barbarian and irreligious people even if these people were all holders of a dozen PhD degrees each with multi-billions fortunes to their names

 

Intentional killing of innocent civilians is as evil as it gets just as running tanks back and forth over people to a pulp!

 

A child’s life is priceless, it’s worth far more than the Earth’s weight in gold! no one has a right under any God or any Law to take a child’s life, by comparison Xi Jinping and Putin’s lives are worthless
