A majority (63%) of Russians continue to support the full-scale war against Ukraine, according to a poll released by the University of Chicago’s nonpartisan National Opinion Research Center (Norc).
As reported in the Kyiv Independent, the poll found that 64% of Russians viewed the war against Ukraine as symptomatic of a larger “civilisational struggle between Russia and the west”. The publication noted that the figure represents a slight decrease from a poll conducted last November by the Russian independent polling organisation, The Levada Center, in which 75% of respondents said they supported the war.
There were also insights into how Russians may approach the upcoming presidential election, in which President Vladimir Putin is seeking a fifth term in office; 66% of respondents said they would be “more likely” to vote for him, while the level of support was even higher among older generations.

More generally, scapegoating, propaganda, and fear-mongering are effective.

To defeat Putin in a long war, Ukraine must switch to active defense in 2024
By embracing a strategy of active defense in 2024, Kyiv can achieve the twin goals of preventing any major Russian advances and creating conditions that strongly favor Ukraine in what is increasingly a war of attrition, writes Mykola Bielieskov.

So that's mood music that we should expect Ukraine to get support to protect itself and not much more; but let's see who is in control after the US elections, and only then will we know if Ukraine can get the backing to even think of going on attack.To defeat Putin in a long war, Ukraine must switch to active defense in 2024

Had to stop half way through; couldn't finish it.
Some unremarkable trolls in this thread would do well to read this and try to develop a conscience.

I would like to see more about how Zelenskyy can render the strategy politically feasible. It doesn't matter if the strategy wins if they toss him out of office halfway through executing it, and replace him with someone who does the wrong thing.
