My reading comprehension skills have noticeably declined with age. Would someone please read this article and convey to me the answers it proposes to provide? If you, like me, cannot find the answers promised to be revealed by this article can you point to an article that does actually address these questions?
The article admits measuring public sentiment based on "opinion polling" is difficult in authoritarian countries like Russia, but then goes on to cite "opinion polls" for what Russian citizens supposedly want and/or fear. So there's that.

The last paragraph quotes Putin saying Ukraine gets to decide its own future...but since he draws a red line at Ukraine aligning with the EU or the West...then maybe it's just Putin propaganda aimed at undermining NATO?
