As someone downvoted me, the reason behind my doubt is linked in an earlier article: "Restrictive laws that criminalize criticism of what is officially referred to in Russia as a "special military operation" have stifled public expression of discontent in surveys, especially if people are asked a question about supporting the war." And then they attempt to survey people with some magic tricks: "But Moscow-based research group Chronicles said its survey of 1,600 people aimed for a truer snapshot of sentiment by asking questions that try to capture the meaning of "support" and would not put respondents on the defensive for fear of repercussions." There are enough problems in traditional surveys even in Western countries about validity, i.e. whether the questions asked really measure what is intended to be measured. I don't have time to examine this myself but the details of the survey are here: https://github.com/dorussianswantwar/research1/tree/main/%D0%93%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%B0_11 https://github.com/dorussianswantwar/research1/tree/main/%D0...
