Ukrainians’ attitude towards Turkey: balance of trust with noticeable positive bias

13 May , 2025  

Turkey remains one of the countries towards which Ukrainians have predominantly positive feelings. This is evidenced by the results of a sociological survey conducted in April 2025 by Active Group in collaboration with the Experts Club analytical center.

The data show that 46.4% of Ukrainians have a positive attitude toward Turkey (40.4% — mostly positive, 6.0% — completely positive), while 12.0% express a negative opinion (10.9% — mostly negative, 1.1% — completely negative). At the same time, 39.3% of respondents remain neutral, and 2.4% abstained from answering.

“Ukrainian society perceives Turkey as an important regional partner, in particular thanks to its role in humanitarian and defense initiatives, as well as its developed tourism industry,” said Oleksandr Pozniy, co-founder of Active Group.

These results indicate stable relations between the two nations and room for further intensification of cooperation at the intergovernmental level.

The presentation of the study is available at the link.
