An overwhelming majority of Ukrainians are convinced that Ukraine will win the war unleashed by the aggressor country Russia. The results of a survey by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS), which were published 10 August, show this.
The survey was conducted from 16 to 31 July 2026, and 1808 respondents aged 18 and older took part. The sampling error does not exceed 3,5%, KIIS said.
According to the sociologists, 82% of respondents are certain that victory will belong to Ukraine; 59% of those surveyed are completely convinced of this (the remaining 23% rather think that Ukraine will win, the institute clarified).
Only 3% believe that Russia will win, and another 16% could not decide on their opinion.
In February 2024, according to a KIIS survey, 89% believed in victory, of whom 60% believed completely, KIIS noted.
On the question of which side currently has the advantage on the battlefield, 7% of Ukrainians said it favors the occupiers, while 39% expressed the view that Ukraine has the advantage.
KIIS also noted that more than half of Ukrainians either believe that neither side has the advantage (32%) or could not decide on their answer (22%).
"In February 2024, when we asked a similar question, 15% believed the situation favored Russia, 24% — Ukraine. Another 47% answered that neither side had the advantage, and 14% were undecided," KIIS summarized.
