The attitude of Ukrainians towards Greece remains largely positive, although almost half of the respondents express a neutral position. This is evidenced by the results of a nationwide sociological survey conducted by Active Group in collaboration with the information and analytical center Experts Club in August 2025.
According to the study, 47.7% of Ukrainians have a positive attitude towards Greece (37.7% — mostly positive, 10.0% — completely positive). Only 2.3% of respondents rated the country negatively (1.7% — mostly negative, 0.7% — completely negative). At the same time, 48.7% of citizens remain neutral, and 1.7% admitted that they do not have enough information about this country.
“For Ukrainians, Greece is primarily associated with cultural heritage, tourism, and historical proximity to European traditions. This creates a generally positive image, although not as pronounced as in the case of Ukraine’s strategic partners,” commented Active Group co-founder Oleksandr Pozniy.
In turn, Maksim Urakin, founder of Experts Club, emphasized the economic aspect of the relationship:
“In the first half of 2025, trade turnover between Ukraine and Greece exceeded $784 million. At the same time, exports from Ukraine amounted to only $193.8 million, while imports from Greece reached over $590 million.
The negative balance of approximately $397 million indicates a significant trade imbalance, which is of strategic importance for the further development of bilateral economic relations,” he said.
The survey is part of a broader study analyzing the international sympathies and antipathies of Ukrainians in the current geopolitical context.
