Nearly two-thirds of Poles positive about relations with Ukraine

The share of Polish citizens who positively assess relations with Ukraine has more than doubled since 2018.

That's according to Polskie Radio, which refers to the Center for Public Opinion Research (CBOS), Ukrinform reports.

Five years ago, this figure stood at 29%, and now it has reached 64%.

The CBOS report points out that this undoubtedly is a sign of a rapprochement between the two peoples against the backdrop of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Sociologists note that immediately after Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014, there was also a clear increase in sympathy for Ukrainians on the part of Polish society.

Now, only 4% of Polish residents assess relations between the two countries as bad, CBOS added.

Above-average positive ratings are most often observed among respondents aged 45 to 54, residents of large cities, more educated people, and respondents with a higher per capita income.
