According to recent polls, Vladimir Putin's approval rating today stands at around 62%. This is a slight decrease from previous months, likely influenced by ongoing issues such as the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, economic challenges, and increased tensions with Western countries. Despite these challenges, Putin continues to maintain a relatively strong level of support among the Russian population, with many citing his strong leadership and efforts to promote Russia's interests on the global stage. However, there are also critics who are concerned about issues such as political repression, human rights violations, and corruption within the government.
