Shift in Ukraine public opinion after the Russian intervention in Ukraine in 2014-2015
02/06/2015
One opinion poll shows 51% of people in the east now have a negative opinion of Russian intervention in Ukraine. Russian support was stronger in the east and south east of the country in areas around Donetsk and near the eastern border. Areas on the West closer to the border with Poland have significantly higher number of people favoring EU membership and ties to the EU. The shift in opinion in the east is significant. This shows the damaging effect on Ukraine-Russia relations of the intervention in Ukraine by Russia in 2014-2015. It is also one more reason for Russia to meet the terms of the Minsk II agreement and halt the fighting.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
