Results of a public opinion poll conducted by the Razumkov Center Sociological Service on June 6–12, 2024, as part of its project implemented under the USAID/ENGAGE activity, which is funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by Pact. The contents of this survey are the sole responsibility of Pact and its implementing partners and do not necessary reflect the views of USAID or the United States Government.
The face-to-face poll was conducted in Vinnytsia, Volyn, Dnipropetrovsk, Zhytomyr, Transcarpathian, Zaporizhia, Ivano-Frankivsk, Kyiv, Kirovohrad, Lviv, Mykolayiv, Odesa, Poltava, Rivne, Sumy, Ternopil, Kharkiv, Kherson, Khmelnytsky, Cherkasy, Chernihiv, Chernivtsi regions and the city of Kyiv (in Zaporizhia, Mykolayiv, Kharkiv, Kherson regions — only in the territories controlled by the government of Ukraine and free of hostilities).
The poll was conducted using stratified multistage sampling with random selection at the first stages of sampling and quota selection of respondents at the final stage (when respondents were selected on the basis of gender and age quotas). The sample structure reproduces the demographic structure of the adult population of the territories where the poll was conducted as of the beginning of 2022 (by age, sex, settlement type).
2016 respondents over the age of 18 were polled. The sample theoretical error does not exceed 2.3%. At the same time, additional systematic deviations of the sample may be caused by the consequences of Russian aggression, in particular, forced evacuation of millions of citizens.
Assessment of the situation in the country and social well-being of citizens
After the start of Russia's full-scale aggression against Ukraine, the share of citizens who believe that events in Ukraine were developing in the right direction has increased significantly (from 20% in December 2021 to 51% in September–October 2022), reaching maximum in February–March 2023 (61%). According to the latest poll, the share of those who believe that events in Ukraine are developing in the right direction is smaller than the share of those who hold the opinion that they are developing in a wrong direction (33% and 47%, respectively), but their ratio still remains better than before the start of the full-scale war (20% and 65.5%, respectively, in December 2021).
29% of Ukrainians believe that Ukraine can overcome the existing problems and difficulties in the next few years, 46% believe that Ukraine will be able to overcome problems in a longer term, and 11% don’t believe that Ukraine can overcome the existing problems (the rest are undecided). Ukrainians the most optimistically assessed the prospects for overcoming problems and difficulties at the end of 2022 — beginning of 2023 (for example, in February–March 2023 — 49%, 36%, and 3%, respectively). The assessments before the start of the full-scale war were much more pessimistic (in December 2021 — 18%, 54%, and 18%, respectively).
Satisfaction with life
The level of life satisfaction of Ukrainian citizens increased over the decade preceding the full-scale war and was higher in 2017 and 2022 than in 2011 (respectively, 5.1, 5.2 and 4.5 points on a scale from 1 to 10, where "1" means that the respondent is "absolutely dissatisfied", "10" — "fully satisfied" with his life). In January 2024, compared to 2022, this indicator fell to 4.7, in June 2024 it remained approximately the same as in January 2024 — 4.8 points.
The level of life satisfaction is higher in the Western regions (5.5 points), lower — in the South (3.9 points); in the Eastern and Central regions it makes 4.4 and 4.7 points, respectively. The feeling of satisfaction with life decreases with the respondent’s age (from 5.7 points among those under 30 years to 4.1 points among those who are 60 years and older). The higher the well-being of respondents is, the more satisfied they are with their life (satisfaction increases from 3.9 points among those who do not have enough money for food to 6.1 points among those who reported that they did well).
Assessment of the economic situation
Ukrainian citizens are quite skeptical about the economic situation in the country: in May 2021, eight months before the start of the full-scale war, 60% of respondents called "very bad" or "fairly bad" (and only 5% — "good" or "very good", 32% — "neither bad nor good"). In September–October 2022, seven months into the war, the share of citizens who assessed it as "very bad" or "fairly bad" increased (up to 64.5%). These assessments improved in February–March 2023, when a decrease in negative assessments was recorded even compared to the "pre-war" period: then, the economic situation in the country was termed "very bad" or "fairly bad" by 55% (4% — "good " or "very good", 37% — "neither bad nor good"). According to the poll conducted in December 2023, these estimates have worsened (66.5%, 3% and 27%, respectively). The indicators of the latest, June poll (64%, 3% and 30%, respectively) are close to those of December 2023.
The well-being of own families, as a rule, is assessed by citizens better than the economic situation in the country. In May 2021, only 36% termed it "very" or "rather" bad, 48% called it "neither bad nor good", and 14% — "good" or "very good"). In September–October 2022, the share of citizens who called it "very" or "rather" bad increased slightly (to 39%), the share of those who considered it "good" or "very good" fell to 10% . According to the poll conducted in February–March 2023, the assessments of the family well-being, along with the assessments of the economic situation in the country, slightly improved and became close to those recorded in May 2021: 35% called it " very" or "rather" bad, 50% — "neither bad nor good", 12% — "good" or "very good". In December 2023, the assessments of the family well-being slightly worsened (37%, 51%, and 10.5%, respectively) and did not statistically differ from those observed in September–October 2022. However, the results of the poll conducted in June 2024 show some improvement compared to last December (37%, 47% and 14%, respectively) due to a small increase in the total share of those who called the level of family well-being "good" or "very good".
When assessing the material well-being of their families from the viewpoint of what purchases family incomes allow, after the start of the full-scale aggression, compared to June 2021, the share of citizens who hardly made ends meet and did not have the money even for necessary foodstuffs has increased (from 9% in June 2021 to 13% in June 2024), while the share of those who said that their families "generally do well, but the purchase of durables, such as furniture, a refrigerator, a TV set, causes difficulties" decreased (from 44% to 38.5%).
Before the start of the full-scale war, citizens did not tend to believe in rapid economic changes: in May 2021, only 12% believed that in the next 3 months the economic situation of the country would change for the better, 13% hoped that during this timeframe the well-being of their families would change for the better. More often citizens expected the situation to worsen in the months following the poll: 22% answered that the economic situation in the country would change for the worse, 18% — that during this timeframe the well-being of their family would change for the worse. However, the most widespread opinion was that the situation will not change significantly in 3 months (respectively, 56% and 57% did not expect changes there).
In September–October 2022, the share of those who expected the situation in the economy to deteriorate significantly increased to 35% (due to a decrease to 37.5% in the share of those who believed that the situation would not change), only 9.5% believed that the situation woild change for the better. According to the poll conducted in February–March 2023, the share of those who expected the situation in the economy to deteriorate within 3 months decreased to 23%, with a simultaneous increase in the shares of those who expected the situation to improve (up to 13%) and those who believed that it would not change (up to 45%). However, from the second half of 2023, citizens' short-term expectations worsened. In June 2024, the share of those who believed that the situation in the economy would change for the better within 3 months made 7%, of those who suggested that it would worsen — 34%, and the share of those who suggested that it would not change — 46%.
Similar trends were observed in the dynamics of expected short-term changes in the family well-being. According to the latest poll, the share of those who believe that it will improve during this period makes 7%, of those who suggest that it will worsen — 28%, that it will not change — 51%.
After the start of the large-scale war, there was a significant improvement in the medium-term (2–3 years) economic expectations. That said, the share of those who expected the economic situation in the country to improve in the next 2–3 years increased from 30% to 43% in September–October 2022, compared to May 2021, and in February–March 2023 — to 52%. However, later this optimism decreased, and in June 2024, 29% thought so. The share of those who expect the situation to worsen makes 25%, and the share of those who believe that the situation in this area will not change — 19%.
The share of those who expected their family well-being to improve in the next 2–3 years increased from 29% in May 2021 to 41% in September–October 2022 and to 49.5% in February–March 2023. According to the latest poll, the share of such people decreased to 29%. Those who believe that the well-being of their family will deteriorate during this period make 21%, while 22% believe it will not change.
Trust in the institutes of society
Among state and public institutes, the most trusted are the Armed Forces of Ukraine (90% of respondents trust them), volunteer organizations (81%), volunteer battalions (80%), the State Emergency Service (79%), the National Guard of Ukraine (75%), the State Border Service (71%), the Church (63%), Ukraine’s Defence Ministry (61%), the Security Service of Ukraine (61%), public organizations (56.5%), mayors of the cities (villages, villages) where the respondents live (51%), the President of Ukraine (50%).
Trust is also expressed more often than distrust in the National Police of Ukraine (49% and 43%, respectively) and the National Bank of Ukraine (48% and 42%).
Trust and distrust are equally expressed in the council of the city (village, village) where the respondent lives (respectively, 45% and 46%) and the Verkhovna Rada for Human Rights Commissioner (Ombudsman) (39% and 39%).
The majority of respondents express distrust in the state apparatus (officials) (78.5% distrust it), political parties (77.5%), the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine (76%), courts (the judicial system in general) (73%), the Government of Ukraine (73 %), the Prosecutor's Office (64%), the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (63%), the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (62%), the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption (62%), commercial banks (58%). 50% of respondents distrust Ukrainian mass media. Distrust in trade unions is also reported more often than trust (49% distrust, 25% trust them).
Trust in politicians, officials and public figures
Among politicians, officials and public figures whose credibility was assessed during the poll, most respondents reported trust in V. Zelenskyy (54%). Meanwhile, "personal" trust in V. Zelenskyy exceeds "institutional" trust in the President of Ukraine (50% of respondents trust the President as a social institute).
Trust was expressed more often than distrust in V. Kim (46% and 32.5% respectively), D. Kuleba (43% and 35.5%), V. Malyuk (38% and 25%).
The majority of respondents do not trust Yu. Tymoshenko (80%), O. Arestovich (80%), Yu. Boyko (77%), M. Bezuhla (68%), P. Poroshenko (67%), A. Yermak (64% ), R. Stefanchuk (64%). D. Arakhamia (62%), D. Shmyhal (57%).
Distrust was expressed more often than trust in I. Vereshchuk (49% distrust, 28% trust her), S. Prytula (47% and 41%, respectively), V. Klitschko (45% and 41%, respectively), M. Podoliak (42% and 36%), R. Umerov (41% and 28%), D. Hetmantsev (40% and 20%), I. Klymenko (31.5% and 24%), O. Lytvynenko (26% and 14%).
Attitude to national elections to be held in Ukraine before the end of the war
Only 22% of respondents welcomed the idea of holding national elections in Ukraine (presidential or parliamentary) before the war end (although this is slightly more than in September 2023 — 15%), the majority of respondents (59%) rejected this idea (in September 2023 — 64%). To a large extent, support for the elections before the end of the war depends on the level of trust in the current government. That said, among those who trust the President of Ukraine, only 11.5% would support such elections, while among those who do not trust him — 34%, but even among those who do not trust the President, a relative majority (47%) do not support the idea of such elections (among those who trust him — 72%).
The negative attitude to elections during the war is caused by the fact that a relative majority (46%) of citizens believes that such elections will split Ukrainian society (only 11% suggested that they would unite society; in September–October 2023 — 40% and 9%, respectively).
Belief in victory and vision of victory
80% of respondents believe in Ukraine’s victory in the war (65% of residents of the country’s East, 79% in the South and 84% in the Western and Central regions), 12% do not believe in it (from 9% in the Centre to 18% in the East of the country).
Regarding the time of the victory, the opinions of those respondents who believe in it changed little, compared to March and January 2024, when similar polls were conducted. Only compared to January 2024, the number of those who believe that victory will come before the end of this year slightly increased (their share rose from 20% to 24%).
38% believe that it will come in 1–2 years, 15% — that it will take from 3 to 5 years, 5% — more than 5 years, 1% — that the victory will "hardly happen in my lifetime".
The most optimistic expectations of victory were in February–March 2023, when 50% believed that victory would come before the end of 2023.
Regarding what can be considered a victory, a relative majority (42%) of those who believe in victory said that it meant the expulsion of Russian troops from the entire territory of Ukraine and restoration of the borders as of January 2014. Another 17.5% see the victory as the defeat of the Russian army and promotion of an uprising/collapse in Russia. 14% see the victory as the restoration of the status quo as of February 23, 2022, 8% — expulsion of Russian troops from the entire territory of Ukraine, except for occupied Crimea, and 8% — the end of the war, even if the Russian army remains in the territories that were captured as a result of its full-scale invasion (after February 24, 2022).
