The sociological survey was commissioned by the Kyiv Security Forum and conducted by The Razumkov Center on government-controlled Ukrainian territories from January 31-February 04, 2026, using phone interviews. A total of 1,003 respondents aged 18 and older living in all regions of Ukraine (except for the Autonomous Republic of Crimea) were interviewed. The survey was conducted among citizens who were in Ukraine at the time, in areas controlled by the Ukrainian government and covered by Ukrainian telephone operators. The structure of the sample population reflects the demographic structure of the adult population in the territories where the survey was conducted as of the beginning of 2022 (by macro-regions, age, gender, type of settlement). The theoretical sampling error does not exceed 3.2%.
