This is stated in a survy conducted by the sociological group "Rating", conducted on March 30-31.


  • According to a survey conducted by the Sociological Group “Rating” on March 30-31, 78% of respondents believe that things in Ukraine are moving in the right direction. Only 11% disagreed, 11% could not assess. In all regions and among all age groups, the assessment of the direction as correct continues to dominate.
  • 95% of respondents believe that Ukraine will be able to repel Russia's attack, but confidence in a quick victory "in a few weeks" has decreased slightly from 47% to 35%. Instead, the positions of "several months" and "six months to a year" increased. 14% could not answer this question.
  • The support for NATO accession continues to decline. In the first days of the war, the support for Ukraine's accession to the Alliance increased from 62% to 76%. After the first week of the war, this support decreased to 72%, and at the end of March, it equals 68%, i.e., it is approaching the pre-war levels.
