I think we're past the "support" department. He doesn't care any longer and he will probably start cutting off all western influences soon and go back to old Soviet techniques to scare the populace into compliance. He sees the west as "destroying" the superior Russian culture and he's trying to get back to that. You are going to start seeing a lot more people being disappeared in the Soviet Union in the coming months as the West's universal shutting off Russia from the world economy.
