"That is, the Europe-Ukraine plan, although it may be approved by the majority of the public, is perceived emotionally rather cautiously and will not be considered an unequivocal success. And at the same time, there will be expectations of a repeat of Russia's aggression. However, at the same time, this plan will not be perceived as a defeat. Russia's plan will be mostly perceived as a defeat for Ukraine, with a high expectation that Russia will attack Ukraine again afterwards," the poll concluded.

Among those who are ready to accept Russia's plan, 22% consider it a success, 36% estimate it as "50-50," and 39% consider it a failure.

In this group, 33% are convinced that Russia will attack again, 43% believe the probability is 50-50, and only 20% do not expect repeated aggression.

The Omnibus public opinion poll was conducted at the initiative of KIIS on September 2-14, 2025, by telephone interviews in all regions controlled by Ukraine. A total of 1023 Ukrainian citizens aged 18 and older were interviewed. Formally, under normal circumstances, the statistical error of a sample of 1023 respondents (with a probability of 0.95 and taking into account the design effect of 1.3) does not exceed 4.1%.
