MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Fifty-nine percent of Russians support banning the import of agricultural products from the countries which have imposed sanctions against Moscow, while 31% oppose such restrictions, a survey by the Russian Public Opinion Research Center (VCIOM) released on Wednesday showed.
"Currently, 59% of Russians support restrictions on import of
agriculture products, raw materials and food from the countries which have imposed sanctions against Russia; 31%, or one in three, does not approve of such counter-sanctions," VCIOM said.

Moreover, 39% of the respondents think that Russian products are of better quality than their imported alternatives, another one-third see no difference and 15% believe that the imported goods are better than domestic.
