Poll: Putin's Approval Rating Is at All-Time High in Russia

While Russian President Vladimir Putin is increasingly a pariah on the world stage, his approval rating in Russia has never been higher.

A new poll from Gallup shows that 83 percent of Russians approve of Putin's job performance, up nearly 30 points from his 2013 rating and tied with the previous all-time high from 2008.

Those numbers are on the heels of last month's Pew Research data that showed the unfavorable turn in the way other countries view Russia.

We apologize, this video has expired.

Do Russians still support Putin?
