82% to 67%, Putin’s approval rate DROPS. Cause for concern? (Video)
RT CrossTalk host Peter Lavelle and The Duran’s Alex Christoforou take a quick look at a latest survey conducted by the Russian based Levada-Center, which shows a sharp drop off in the Russian President’s approval rating.

Will the neocons and Russophobes leverage this drop off, or will Putin’s approval rating bounce back up to its previous, stable highs?
