The percentage of Ukrainians who say they are willing to bear the burdens of war indefinitely in order to win dropped sharply over the past eight months, according to a survey by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS).
A survey in October showed 63% of Ukrainians supported continuing the war "for as long as it takes," down from 73% who gave the same answer in a February survey. The figures marked the first drop since the pollsters started asking the question in May of 2022, three months after the full-scale Russian invasion.
