Report Claims Russian Elite Are Growing Uneasy With Putin Over Ukraine War
Russian President Vladimir Putin is reportedly facing rising discontent among sections of Russia’s political and business elite over the Ukraine war and worsening economic pressure. A report cited comments from business leaders and analysts who say some influential figures are becoming more willing to question the Kremlin’s direction. It also alleged that wealthy Russians have moved assets abroad, while security around Putin and Russia’s National Guard has been strengthened amid fears of internal instability. The report further noted that some Central Asian countries, including Kazakhstan, are seeking greater distance from Moscow as the war reshapes regional alliances. However, the claims of a coordinated effort to weaken Putin have not been independently verified, and the Kremlin has not publicly responded.
