The state's permission for Poles to fight in Ukraine was supported by 27% of respondents
The results of a survey commissioned by RMF FM and Dziennik Gazeta Prawna indicate that public support for Polish military presence in Ukraine is increasing
RMF FM reports.
As noted in the publication, Poles are significantly more favorable towards the idea of allowing Polish citizens to participate in combat operations beyond their eastern border compared to last year when support for sending the Polish army equaled zero, and support for allowing Polish citizens to fight was at 3.4%.
Like a year ago, Poles were asked the question: 'What assistance could Poland provide to Ukraine?'
According to the survey results, 75% of Poles consistently support the idea of providing humanitarian aid to Ukrainians, 67.6% prefer assistance with military equipment - whether in the form of ammunition, personal weapons, or grenade launchers - and 54.1% prefer assistance in the form of heavy machinery.
In particular, 27.1% of those surveyed believe that Poland should allow its citizens to fight in Ukraine, while 9.4% consider the dispatch of Polish troops to the Ukrainian front necessary.
Polish experts have dubbed these survey results the 'Macron Effect,' referring to recent statements by the French president, who emphasized that the dispatch of NATO troops to Ukraine cannot be ruled out.
