Just 7 percent of Ukrainians approve of US leadership: Gallup
Gallup said nearly 8 in 10 Ukrainians now disapprove of U.S. leadership, even as two-thirds favor negotiations to end the war.
- On Tuesday, Gallup released a survey finding only 7% of Ukrainians approve of American leadership, marking the largest drop in a single country's approval of America over five years.
- Approval plummeted 59 points since four years ago, when the war began and the Biden administration increased military support; in 2022, nearly two-thirds of Ukrainians approved of American leadership while 16 percent disapproved.
- The Global Conflict Tracker reports nearly 56,000 civilian casualties and 3.7 million displaced Ukrainians; Ukraine has received roughly $188 billion in aid from America and $197 billion from the European Union since January 2022.
- During an Oval Office meeting, President Trump told Zelensky he did not "have the cards" in the war and warned the Ukrainian leader was "gambling with World War III" by refusing a ceasefire without security guarantees.
- Most Ukrainians do not expect the conflict to end within the next year, though two-thirds support negotiations to resolve the war; separate polling indicates Russians' views of their country's economic situation are at a 20-year low.
