Zelensky's rating has sharply increased: Ukrainians are supporting him
According to the latest survey results published by Britain's The Economist magazine, the rating of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky has sharply increased following his visit to the US. The results of a telephone survey conducted by the Ipsos agency show that Zelensky still enjoys significant support among Ukrainians.
Ukrainians' desire to stay on the front line
In the survey, 74 percent of the 1,000 Ukrainians who participated approved of continuing military operations even without US assistance. This figure clearly demonstrates the public's trust and support for Zelensky. Additionally, 59 percent of respondents believe that Ukraine can achieve victory on the battlefield. This opinion contradicts statements by US officials, particularly Secretary of State Marco Rubio, regarding its impossibility.
Zelensky leads in the presidential race
According to the article's authors, Zelensky is currently leading in the upcoming presidential elections. His main rival, former commander Valeriy Zaluzhnyi, could be defeated by a large margin. Zelensky is particularly popular among women, youth, and residents of eastern Ukraine.
Zaluzhnyi, on the other hand, has gained respect among older voters who are more combative and unwilling to compromise.
Ukrainians consider Zelensky the legitimate president
In the survey, 7 out of every 10 Ukrainians expressed approval of Zelensky's activities. Furthermore, 8 out of 10 stated that they recognize him as the legitimate president and do not support the idea of holding elections while the war is ongoing.
Another important piece of information mentioned in the article is that most Ukrainians are ready to sacrifice their lives for Zelensky. They are lining up to head to the front instead of fleeing when they see military commissioners.
The latest survey results indicate that Zelensky's position in Ukraine remains very strong. His support for the presidency is high, and a large portion of Ukrainians continues to back his leadership. Despite the ongoing war in Ukraine, the people still believe in victory and maintain their loyalty to Zelensky.
