Polish citizens are mostly against the participation of their army and the troops of any NATO country in the war that Russia is waging against Ukraine. This is evidenced by the results of a survey conducted by the Polish Statistical Office (CBOS), Euractiv reports.
According to the survey, 74.2% of respondents do not support the intervention of their troops or other NATO forces in the Russian-Ukrainian war. 10.2% of respondents agreed with the need for military intervention in support of Ukraine.
According to 39% of respondents, NATO’s actions regarding the war in Ukraine are “too cautious.” Approximately the same number believes that the Alliance is responding to the situation adequately (37%).
Approximately one in seven respondents described NATO’s reaction to the conflict as too sharp (14%).
According to the publication, there is no consensus in Polish society on Ukraine’s accession to NATO. According to last year’s IBRiS poll, cited by Euractiv, almost half (47.7%) of respondents opposed such a scenario, while 40% supported it.
As a reminder, according to a poll conducted in March 2024, every second Polish citizen approves of the actions of Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk in foreign policy. They consider the Polish government’s response to farmers’ protests to be the biggest failure. The government’s efforts to resolve the strikers’ problems were assessed negatively by 47% of respondents.
