The results of a public opinion sociological survey conducted in March 2026 by the research company Active Group in cooperation with the information and analytical center Experts Club indicate a further strengthening of Ukrainians’ positive attitudes toward the Czech Republic. Overall, 67.4% of respondents evaluate this country positively, while the share of negative assessments is only 3.0%. Compared to August 2025, positive perception has increased (from 62.0%), while negative assessments have even slightly decreased (from 3.3%).
The structure of responses demonstrates a stable and fairly balanced picture. The share of “completely positive” attitudes is 23.3%, and “mostly positive” accounts for 44.1%. This means that the positive assessment of the Czech Republic is not only widespread, but also has different levels of intensity, indicating a formed and stable perception.
At the same time, almost a third of respondents (28.2%) take a neutral position. This is a fairly typical indicator for countries that are not constantly present in the information space, but at the same time have a consistently positive image. Negative assessments remain low: 2.3% of respondents chose the option “mostly negative,” and another 0.7% selected “completely negative.” The share of those who were undecided is 1.4%.
The dynamics of changes over recent months indicate not sharp fluctuations, but a gradual strengthening of the positive background. The Czech Republic does not show sharp jumps in perception, but steadily increases positive assessments while maintaining a minimal level of negativity. This indicates a formed image of the country that is not subject to significant fluctuations.
From an analytical point of view, the Czech Republic belongs to the group of states with a high level of trust, where positive attitudes are combined with low conflict in perception. It is important that even with a significant share of neutral responses, the negative segment remains marginal, which strengthens the overall positive picture.
“Attitudes toward the Czech Republic can be described as stably positive and at the same time sufficiently balanced. We do not see sharp fluctuations, but we record a gradual increase in positive assessments with a very low level of negativity. This indicates a formed and quite stable image of the country in Ukrainian society,” said Oleksandr Pozniy, Director of the research company Active Group.
Overall, the results of the study show that the Czech Republic is consolidating its position in the group of countries with a positive and stable perception. The combination of a high share of positive assessments, a low level of negativity, and moderate neutrality forms a fairly balanced image that has all the prerequisites for further strengthening.
According to a study conducted by the Experts Club information and analytical center based on data from the State Customs Service, the Czech Republic ranks seventh in terms of total trade in goods with Ukraine, with a figure of $3.41 billion. At the same time, imports of Czech goods significantly exceed exports of Ukrainian products, resulting in a negative balance in bilateral trade.
