Vladimir Putin's Approval Ratings Decline
Putin faces steepest approval decline since 2022 crisis.
Event Overview
Polling data from FOM and VTsIOM indicate a decline in Vladimir Putin's approval ratings, with some reports showing a drop to 65.1% or 66%. This decline is attributed to fuel shortages caused by Ukrainian drone strikes on oil refineries and Western sanctions, as well as economic strain from tax reforms. Some reports note that fuel shortages are now viewed by Russians as a more pressing issue than the war.
