Nearly half of Poles consider military aid to Ukraine excessive
44.8% of Polish citizens believe that the military aid provided to Ukraine after the start of the full-scale Russian invasion was excessive.
Survey participants were asked to assess the extent of Poland’s military support for Ukraine.
The largest share of respondents—44.8%—stated that Poland provided Ukraine with too much military aid.
At the same time, 38.2% of those surveyed believe that the level of support was adequate.
Another 6.8% of respondents are convinced that military aid to Ukraine was insufficient, while 10.2% were undecided, choosing the option “hard to say.”
The SW Research survey was conducted on July 8 using the computer-assisted web interview (CAWI) method. A total of 809 adult respondents from various regions of Poland participated in the study.
This is evidenced by the results of a SW Research poll commissioned by Onet.
Earlier, Polish Presidential Spokesperson Rafał Leskiewicz criticized the decision by Minister of National Defense Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz to declassify information about the military aid Poland provided to Ukraine between 2022 and 2026. He stated that such data should not be made public.
As a reminder, there was outrage in Poland over the alleged secret transfer of scarce Patriot missiles to Ukraine.
The day before, Kosiniak-Kamysz announced that, following consultations with Prime Minister Donald Tusk, he had ordered the declassification of information regarding all Polish military shipments to Ukraine from 2022 to 2026. He also ordered the Military Counterintelligence Service to identify those involved in the possible disclosure of state secrets.
