Really Bad: 'People You Least Expected' Started Supporting Putin - The Russian Dude [View all]
In late November an anti war rally happened in Berlin, Germany. What made it so controversial is that a 16 year old teenager Luka Andreev brough a Russian flag to this rally. Even Russian opposition criticized him, saying that he displays the symbols of Putin's regime. In response to that, Luka said that this is the flag of his country, not Putin's. Many people started to forget the symbolism and national identity. And it has a strong impact on the Russian opposition. Public opinion and sentiment started to change as well.
