These are the findings of a Pew Research Center survey released on July 2.
However, more Americans (31%) believe the U.S. is providing too much aid, while 25% believe it is providing enough aid.
The United States is the only place among respondents where there is significant ideological disagreement on the issue: 51% of Americans who identify as right-wing believe the United States is giving too much support to Ukraine, compared with 13% of those who identify as left-wing.
In Hungary and Turkey, the most common opinion is that their countries provide Ukraine with approximately sufficient support (61% and 46%, respectively).
In Poland, opinions are divided: almost equal shares of respondents believe that their country provides Ukraine with too much (44%) or enough (45%) aid. Only 6% believe that Poland does not provide enough aid to Ukraine.
Sociologists also found that trust in the Ukrainian president among the population of a number of European countries and the United States has decreased compared to last year.
In Sweden, eight out of ten respondents trust Zelensky (https://censor.net/ru/n3497792). About two-thirds or more of respondents in Canada, the Netherlands and the UK also express their trust in the current president of Ukraine.
Zelensky is trusted more than distrusted in Australia, Bangladesh, Japan, the Philippines and South Korea. The opposite is true in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.
Also, six in 10 or more respondents in Greece, Hungary and Italy do not trust the Ukrainian president, the study says.
According to the study, trust in the Ukrainian president has declined in Poland. Thus, in 2024, 48% trust Zelensky, compared to 70% in 2023.
At the same time, trust fell in South Korea (by 15 points) and South Africa (by 12 points). In Australia, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, France, Sweden and the United States, the decline was smaller, but still statistically significant.
