Three in four Ukrainians are critical about the course pursued by the Ukrainian government, according to the findings of a sociological survey conducted by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS).
When asked "In your opinion, is the Ukrainian government leading the country in the right or wrong direction?" 76% of respondents said "in the wrong direction," according to a press release published on June 9.
Eleven per cent chose "in the right direction," while 13% could not answer.
Fourteen point one per cent approved of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko's job performance, 70.1% disapproved, and 15.8% could not answer.
Twelve point two per cent approved of Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman's job performance, 51.2% disapproved, and 36.6% could not answer.
Four point one per cent of the Ukrainians aged over 18 approve of the work of the country's parliament Verkhovna Rada, 86.9% disapproved, and 9.1% could not answer.
Forty-seven point one per cent said they approved of the job performance of their mayor/rural head, 29.9% disapproved, and 23% could not answer.
The nationwide four-stage stochastic survey was conducted by the KIIS which interviewed 2,043 respondents in 110 towns across Ukraine on May 20-June 2, 2016. In Luhansk and Donetsk regions, the poll was conducted only in the areas controlled by the central government.
The margin of error was: 3.3% for figures close to 50%; 2.8% for figures close to 25%; 2% for figures close to 10%; and 1.4% for figures close to 5%.
