Russian President, Vladimir Putin, suffered a major setback to his image in the Kursk region. In opinion polls, the population still blames him for it.

Official sources consulted by the independent press, Western experts and Russian military bloggers agree in predicting that it will take months for Moscow to drive enemy troops from its territory.

The presence of Ukrainian military personnel on Russian soil continues to be an offense to the Russian population, it should be remembered that this had only happened during the Second World War.

The audacious Ukrainian operation has overshadowed the obvious Russian advances in the Donbas region, where Ukrainian troops are clearly in retreat.

According to the Public Opinion Research Center, close to the Kremlin, Putin's image has suffered its biggest setback since the start of the so-called "special" military operation.

The poll conducted between September 12 and September 18 shows a 4.5% drop in the president's approval rating.
