70% of Ukrainians would vote in favour of EU membership if a referendum were held.

This is according to the analytical report “Opinions and Views of the Population of Ukraine on European Integration”, prepared by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) at the request of the Ukraine2EU programme and in cooperation with the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration of Ukraine. The survey was conducted in May-June 2026.

Support has remained stable within the 68-72% range since 2022. At the same time, 30% of Ukrainians are strong supporters of accession, while another 32% are moderate supporters (those who say they support accession “rather strongly”).

Among the expected benefits, respondents cite wage growth, freedom of movement, and alignment of legislation with EU standards. Key concerns include price increases, outflow of skilled workers, and additional costs for businesses.

Press release prepared by Volodymyr Paniotto and Anton Grushetskyi

The absolute majority of Ukrainians (at least 90%) support the Independence of Ukraine. Only 1% believe that Ukraine should unite with Russia. Absolute support for Independence was a fait accompli before 2014, but now this support has become even higher.

Attitudes towards Ukraine’s Independence Day have changed radically from 2013 to 2026. In 2013, this holiday was the most important or favorite for 12% of Ukrainians, and in 2026, it was for 54%. In 2013, it was one of the least popular holidays (only Constitution Day was less popular), and now it is one of the most popular holidays in Ukraine, second only to the two main religious holidays.

From July 20 to August 3, 2026, the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) conducted its own all-Ukrainian public opinion survey, to which, on its own initiative, added questions about war and peace. By the method of telephone interviews (computer-assisted telephone interviews, CATI) based on a random sample of mobile phone numbers (with random generation of phone numbers and subsequent statistical weighting) in all regions of Ukraine (the territory controlled by the Government of Ukraine), 974 respondents were surveyed. The survey was conducted with adult (aged 18 and older) citizens of Ukraine who, at the time of the survey, lived in the territory of Ukraine controlled by the Government of Ukraine. The sample did not include residents of territories temporarily not controlled by the Ukrainian authorities (at the same time, some of the respondents are IDPs who moved from the occupied territories), and the survey was not conducted with citizens who left abroad after February 24, 2022.

Formally, under normal circumstances, the statistical error of such a sample (with a probability of 0.95 and taking into account the design effect of 1.3) did not exceed 4.1% for indicators close to 50%, 3.5% for indicators close to 25%, 2.5% for indicators close to 10%, 1.8% for indicators close to 5%.

Under conditions of war, in addition to the specified formal error, a certain systematic deviation is added. Factors that may affect the quality of results in "wartime" conditions were previously cited by KIIS.

In general, we believe that the obtained results are still highly representative and allow a fairly reliable analysis of the public moods of the population.

KIIS regularly conducts surveys for NDI (National Democratic Institute). Below is a publication prepared by NDI. You could also find it at the NDI’s website. 

Four years into Russia’s full-scale invasion, Ukrainians’ commitment to democracy remains unwavering — despite extraordinary personal loss, economic hardship, and profound uncertainty.

Since 2015, the National Democratic Institute (NDI) has conducted nationwide polling on Ukrainian’s views towards their democratic trajectory, the geopolitical climate, and their hopes for the future. The March 2026 survey presented here is the twenty-fourth in that series and the ninth since the full-scale invasion began.

The findings show that Ukrainians are not only defending their territory — they are defending the democratic future they envision for their country. At the same time, the findings reveal an important tension: while citizens overwhelmingly believe in democracy as the right path for Ukraine, they are unsatisfied with many of their own democratic institutions as the country navigates one of the most challenging periods in its history.

 From July 20 to August 3, 2026, the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) conducted its own all-Ukrainian public opinion survey, to which, on its own initiative, added questions about trust in V. Zelenskyy and about the national elections. By the method of telephone interviews (computer-assisted telephone interviews, CATI) based on a random sample of mobile phone numbers (with random generation of phone numbers and subsequent statistical weighting) in all regions of Ukraine (the territory controlled by the Government of Ukraine), 974 respondents were surveyed.

Formally, under normal circumstances, the margin of error of such a sample (with a probability of 0.95 and taking into account the design effect of 1.3) did not exceed 4.1% for indicators close to 50%, 3.5% for indicators close to 25%, 2.5% for indicators close to 10%, 1.8% for indicators close to 5%.

Under conditions of war, in addition to the specified formal error, a certain systematic deviation is added. Factors that may affect the quality of results in “wartime” conditions were previously cited by KIIS.

In general, we believe that the obtained results are still highly representative and allow a fairly reliable analysis of the public moods of the population.
