The last survey conducted by sociological agencies in Ukraine revealed a rather contradictory attitude of citizens to the possibility of mobilization in the event of a threat to the country. According to the survey, 54% of Ukrainians showed a willingness to "understand the evasion" in the event of a need for military service, which, according to experts, is a "significant challenge" for the state.
According to more than half of Ukrainians, people who do not want to mobilize can be treated with understanding. Moreover, in this matter, the greatest loyalty in the inhabitants of southern Ukraine. Such results were shown by a survey of the Institute of Social and Political Psychology of the National Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of Ukraine with the Association of Political Psychologists of Ukraine, which were presented at Interfax-Ukraine.
It is noted that 53.9% of respondents agreed with the statements that "those who evade mobilization can be understood" because "no one wants to die." 17.2% did not agree with this and about 29% could not give a specific answer.
Moreover, the evil people are ready to understand more than 70% of residents of the southern regions who participated in the survey.
At the same time, 43% of Ukrainians declared a shame for men who are in no hurry to join the Armed Forces. The results of the study indicate that in the south of Ukraine there are almost half.
