Most Ukrainians have a positive attitude toward Slovenia, according to the results of a survey conducted by Active Group and Experts Club in August 2025.
According to the data, 52.8% of respondents expressed a positive attitude towards this country (20.5% — mostly positive, 32.3% — completely positive). Only 9.0% of respondents had a negative attitude (7.0% — mostly negative, 2.0% — completely negative). At the same time, 38.2% of citizens expressed a neutral position, while another 5.3% admitted that they knew little about Slovenia.
“The survey results show that Ukrainians perceive Slovenia as a friendly European country that consistently supports Ukraine in international organizations and promotes European integration. The high level of positive attitudes reflects both cultural proximity and shared European values,” said Active Group CEO Oleksandr Pozniy.
In turn, co-founder of Experts Club Maksym Urakin emphasized the economic aspect:
“In 2025, the total trade volume between Ukraine and Slovenia reached $181.5 million. Ukrainian exports amounted to $45.3 million, while imports exceeded $136 million, resulting in a negative balance of $90.8 million. This indicates that there is significant potential for growth in Ukrainian exports to Slovenia, especially in the areas of agricultural products and mechanical engineering,” he said.
The study is part of a large-scale project by Active Group and Experts Club to study Ukrainians’ international sympathies and the dynamics of foreign economic relations.
