}In the Mood for War? Public and Elite Sentiments in Russia
Tue, February 14th, 2023
Carnegie Europe
Russians continue to support Vladimir Putin’s “special operation” in Ukraine, but signs of fatigue among citizens and discontent in political and economic circles are emerging.
While the president has tightened his grip on power, this shared sentiment between the Russian public and elites may be crucial for the final outcome of the war. But is the mood subject to change?
Carnegie Europe invites you to an in-person event on the public and elite sentiments in Russia with Andrei Kolesnikov, senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and Rosa Balfour.
A light reception will follow the event.

Event Speakers
Kolesnikov was a senior fellow at the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center.
