Russians have been chased down in a foreign country and had polonium-210 put into their tea for speaking out against the government in Russia.

You're not going to get a very "real" perspective of how ordinary Russians feel about much of anything. I'm sure the Kim family in North Korea has an 135 percent approval rating but we're not taking those numbers as fact either.

I think I have a pretty good idea, having actually lived in Moscow and all that. And those people are overwhelmingly more western-minded than the people from smaller cities…

Perhaps stick to educating people on things you’re actually familiar with?

I live in a smaller city of Russia and can assure you that government support is quite low even here.

Support for the war, on in general?

If in general, we must have rather different views on what it means to support the government.
