As Russia’s war in Ukraine continues, the US public remains supportive of sending military and economic aid to Kyiv and in favor of boosting sanctions against Moscow.
While the public thinks Putin’s foreign policies have improved Moscow’s international influence and the state of the Russian military, fewer now say they have boosted their country’s image abroad.
Most believe Russia should continue to pursue an independent foreign policy despite the sanctions, which are attributed to the West’s hostility and misunderstanding of the situation in Ukraine.
