Bruno Kahl, President of Germany\u2019s Federal Intelligence Service (BND), is convinced that the population of Russia largely supports their leader Vladimir Putin and his war against Ukraine.<\/p>\n

“We have the impression that the entire Russian people are ready to follow Putin, that this war is necessary, and that evil NATO is the aggressor,” Kahl said.<\/p>\n “And that the war and, so to speak, the liquidation of this unjust regime in Ukraine are worthy of honour and glory for Russia,” he added.<\/p>\n Kahl believes that unwavering support for Putin is explained by the fact that the Kremlin leader controls the entire propaganda apparatus.\u00a0<\/p>\n This allows him to “manipulate the entire country, from west to east, in this direction”. Although “within the circles of power and politics, there are somewhat different opinions about whether this or that move in the war is sensible or less sensible,” Kahl emphasised, saying “there is no opposition that would in any way stand in Putin\u2019s way”.<\/p>\n Background:<\/strong><\/p>\n
