Putin Watch
Putin Watch Index
One number, updated daily, that says how much pressure the Kremlin is under. Seven weighted inputs. Every score, every source, on the record.
Putin Watch Index · .
.
What it measures. Observable pressure on Vladimir Putin’s regime: elite purges and reshuffles, economic stress, war-front losses and deep strikes on Russian territory, diplomatic isolation, domestic dissent, succession signals, and search demand for exit terms inside Russia.
How it’s scored. Seven inputs, each rated 0 to 10 daily by a human editor from dated, linked sources. The weighted average is multiplied by 10 for a 0 to 100 index; higher = more stress on the Kremlin.
What it is not. Not a prediction of any specific event: not a coup, not a collapse, not a market. A high PWI does not mean regime change is imminent; it is a public read on pressure. Full methodology →
