78% of Poles support army participation in defending Baltic states in case of an attack — poll
The vast majority of respondents in Poland support the participation of the Polish army in defending one of the Baltic states in the event of an armed attack within NATO. This position was expressed by 78% of respondents.
These are the results of a United Surveys by IBRiS poll conducted for Wirtualna Polska.
The response option “definitely yes” was chosen by 47,7% of survey participants. A further 30,3% said “rather yes.”
16,2% of respondents were against the participation of Polish servicemembers in defending the Baltic states. Of them, 11,7% answered “rather no,” and 4,5% — “definitely no.” Another 5,8% of respondents could not decide.
The article notes that the security of the Baltic states is directly linked to the security of Poland. The Suwałki Gap, which runs between Poland and Lithuania, provides land connection of the Baltic states with the rest of NATO territory.
In the event of a conflict in this area, its consequences could quickly spread to Poland as well.
The survey was conducted 4–6 September 2026. It included 1000 people from across Poland. The research was carried out using online questionnaires and telephone interviews.
