WASHINGTON, June 12, 2025announces the following polling results on American opinions regarding the War in Ukraine:
Findings:
- 74% say the war in Ukraine should be a U.S. priority
- Only 29% think President Trump should pressure Ukraine to give up land
- 82% believe allowing countries take land by force sets a dangerous precedent
- Just 24% support letting Russia keep Crimea; 65% oppose it
- 84% back a bill to sanction Russia's natural resource sales
- 76% feel U.S. military aid to Ukraine is justified
- 58% say Trump should boost military aid to levels to stop Russia; 25% disagree
"This poll shows Americans overwhelmingly believe that a win in Ukraine is a win for President Trump and a win for America," said Bill Cole, Founder of the Peace Through Strength Institute. "It puts Russia on defense, advances our drone dominance, and strengthens U.S. leadership without sending American troops."
"This isn't foreign aid," Cole stated. "It's a strategic investment."
"Voters understand we either stop Putin now-or face a far more dangerous and expensive war later," Cole added.
Polling was conducted in late May of likely American voters by David Wolfson, Republican Pollster, and Faculty Lecturer at Columbia University's Political Analytics Graduate Program.
