According to the poll results, 63.8% of Poles believe that in the event of an armed attack by Russia on Poland, American troops will come to their defense. Every fourth (25.8%) does not count on military support from abroad and shows significantly more skepticism.
The study, conducted by the University of Social Sciences and Humanities and CBOS for DGP, showed that Poles' high trust in the US is based on a long-standing political consensus: all major political forces in Poland agreed on the importance of Washington's role in ensuring the country's security.
Therefore, regardless of political preferences, citizens see the US as an ally
The poll also showed that the greatest trust in American allied commitments is expressed by right-wing political groups (71.4%) and young people: among the two youngest age categories, positive responses exceed 70%.
