The countries that hate Putin, the countries that love Putin, and the countries in between

A survey just carried out by the Alliance of Democracies shows the feelings of different countries about Bloodymir Putin. See the list below expressed in terms of the percentage of negative opinions:

Poland……………..87%

Ukraine……………80%

Portugal……….79%

Sweden…………..77%

Italy………………..65%

UK………………….65%

US…………………..62%

Germany………..62%

Venezuela………36%

India………………36%

Hungary……….32%

Algeria………….29%

Indonesia……..14%

Saudi Arabia…11%

Egypt……………..7%

Morocco…………4%

Why is it that my country (which unlike Poland was never invaded by the Russian rapist army) hates Bloodymir Putin (that made me very proud) almost as much as Ukraine? Is it because most Portuguese think exactly like the best known Portuguese philosopher alive who wrote that Putin’s army is nothing more than a horde of assassins ?

PS – In the post scriptum of a previous post, I scoffed at Lavrov’s moronic views on world powers and in particular about Russia’s inability to retain its own talents. On this issue see the article just published in The Economist https://www.economist.com/united-states/2022/05/26/america-has-an-opportunity-to-lure-russias-tech-talent
