Putin Making Fewer Public Appearances Amid Criticism
Some polls indicate a drop in Russian President Vladimir Putin's approval, coinciding with a stalled war in Ukraine. Russia expert Giovanni Savino, a historian at the University of Naples, described this as a symptom of an erosion process within the country. However, Savino noted that sociological surveys in Russia are particular and not entirely reliable. Russian President Vladimir Putin's approval ratings are declining, a fact confirmed even by the state-controlled CIO (Center for Public Opinion Research). Vladimir Putin, previously shown on Russian TV in military fatigues visiting command posts and speaking with generals about the war on Ukraine, is now making fewer trips and public appearances. His 'commander-in-chief style' is less visible, according to the source.
