According to the results of a study conducted by Active Group and Experts Club in August 2025, Ukrainians rated the role of European Union countries in promoting peace in Ukraine the highest.
According to the survey, 42.0% of respondents believe that the EU (primarily France and Germany) is making the greatest contribution to the peace process. 25.8% of respondents noted the key role of the United States, and 12.8% noted the key role of the United Kingdom. At the same time, 11.7% of Ukrainians believe that no country is contributing to the establishment of peace, while 5.8% were unable to decide on an answer. Significantly fewer respondents noted other countries: China — 1.3%, India — 0.5%, Brazil — 0.2%.
“The results show that Ukrainians rate the diplomatic and political efforts of the EU and the US highest. Together with the UK, these countries form the main international triangle of trust for Ukrainian society,” said Active Group Director Oleksandr Pozniy.
Maksim Urakin, co-founder of Experts Club, emphasized the economic dimension of the partnership.
“For our country, it is important not only to have a political partnership with the EU, the US, and the UK, but also an economic one. China, on the other hand, despite its leadership in trade with Ukraine, remains on the periphery of the peace process,” he said.
The survey was part of a large-scale project by Active Group and Experts Club to study Ukraine’s international image and foreign policy orientations.
