According to a Razumkov Center survey, 74% of Ukrainians believe in victory, but they imagine it differently: from the restoration of the 2014 borders to the destruction of the Russian army.
According to a survey conducted by the Razumkov Center in March-February of this year, 74% of Ukrainians believe in victory over the enemy. The proportion of those who do not believe in victory over Russia is 16%, writes UNN.
It is noted that 56% of residents of the South of the country, 67% of the Eastern region, 79% of residents of the Central region and 81.5% of residents of the western regions believe in victory. At the same time, in the Western region, 11% do not believe in victory, in the Central region - 14%, in the Eastern region 23% and in the South of the country 24%.
Answering the question of what can be considered a victory, most often (30%) those who believe in victory answer that victory can be considered the expulsion of Russian troops from all over Ukraine and the restoration of borders as of January 2014.
