VTsIOM published very timely numbers. On the occasion of Internal Affairs Officer Day (well, the name, Police Day sounds more worrisome), researchers asked people about the police.
65% of Russians state that they trust the police in their area, in 2012 - 35%.
25% of respondents do not trust policemen, fourteen years ago - 61%.
The number of Russians who do not trust the police today has decreased almost 2.5 times compared to 2012, while the level of trust in police officers has increased 1.8 times.
Let's state the obvious: public opinion of police officers has improved considerably in recent years, and the calculated index (consisting of positive and negative responses to trust) reached 40 points out of 100 - the third highest value for the entire measurement period. In 2012 it was -26 points.
Mozli is magical out loud.
