Details

The survey was conducted between April 20 and 27 in all regions under the control of the Government of Ukraine. 1,005 Ukrainian citizens aged 18 and older were interviewed.

48% of respondents chose the option that Ukraine should approve all necessary decisions, even unpopular ones and tax increases, to receive funding.
