However, even more Americans (31%) believe that the United States provides too much assistance, and 25% believe that it provides enough assistance.

The United States appears to be the only place where there are significant ideological differences on this issue: 51% of Americans who identify as right-wing believe that the US provides too much support to Ukraine, compared to 13% of those who hold left-wing views.

Polls similar to the one in the US were conducted in Hungary, Türkiye and Poland.

The most common opinion in Hungary and Turkey is that their countries provide approximately enough support to Ukraine (61% and 46% respectively).

Opinions in Poland are split: almost equal shares of those polled believe that their country provides too much (44%) or enough (45%) assistance to Ukraine. Only 6% believe that Poland provides insufficient amounts of assistance to Ukraine.

Additionally, the Pew Research Centre poll found that the trust of people in a number of European countries and the United States in the Ukrainian president has decreased compared to last year.

Another poll showed earlier that half of Hungarians stand against the EU providing any assistance to Ukraine.
