At the same time, the results of pre-holiday polls of Russians demonstrate their “readiness” to give their lives for Putin’s power.

The Kremlin is preparing the population of Russia for the continuation of a full-scale war in Ukraine. This conclusion was made at the Center for Counteracting Disinformation under the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine.

Russian President Vladimir Putin on the air of a propaganda TV channel said that “Russia is acting in the right direction and protecting its national interests” and expressed confidence that “99.9% of Russians are ready to do everything for the benefit of their homeland.” In a message from the JRC, it is noted that in fact, for most Russians, the new year offers nothing but hardships.

“In less than 10 months of the war, the Russian army officially lost more than 100 thousand soldiers, the cost of the war amounted to almost 30% of the country’s annual budget. According to Western experts, as a result of the “special operation” the country will need up to 30 years to reach the pre-war economic level” , – underline in the Center for Counteracting Disinformation.

Attention is also drawn to the fact that the results of pre-holiday polls of Russians demonstrate their “readiness” to give their lives for Putin’s power.

“According to the polls of the All-Russian Public Opinion Research Center, 69.6% of Russians do not feel the New Year’s mood, and for 62% the main shock was “SVO,” the Center informs.

The institution’s experts came to the conclusion that Russian President Vladimir Putin’s inadequate assessment of the situation in the country indicates that against the background of statements about its readiness for negotiations, the Kremlin is preparing the population for the continuation of the war.
