Despite strategic partnership and large-scale support during the war, Ukrainians’ attitudes toward the US are becoming increasingly complex and ambiguous. This is evidenced by the results of a nationwide poll conducted by Active Group in conjunction with the Experts Club information and analytical center in April 2025.
According to the survey, 36.1% of Ukrainian citizens have a generally positive view of the United States (29.3% mostly positive, 6.7% completely positive). At the same time, 29.9% of respondents have a negative attitude (25.8% mostly negative, 4.1% completely negative). Another third — 31.2% — remain neutral, and 2.8% were unable to give a definite answer.
“For many Ukrainians, the US is still a guarantor of support, but it is also a country with an ambivalent role in global conflicts, which can cause mixed reactions in society,” said Experts Club founder Maxim Urakin.
“These data show that Ukrainians recognize the important role of the US in supporting our country during the war, but at the same time remain critical of Washington’s current actions in global politics,” said Alexander Pozniy, co-founder of Active Group.
The poll was part of a broader study examining Ukrainians’ international sympathies and antipathies in the context of contemporary geopolitics.
