Views of Russia, Russian President Vladimir Putin and NATO are examined in the context of long-term trend data. The report also explores views of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. This is the first year since 2019 that the Global Attitudes Survey has included countries from Africa and Latin America due to <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/short-reads\/2020\/04\/30\/the-coronavirus-pandemics-impact-on-pew-research-centers-global-polling\/\">the coronavirus outbreak<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For non-U.S. data, this report draws on nationally representative surveys of 27,285 adults conducted from Feb. 20 to May 22, 2023. All surveys were conducted over the phone with adults in Canada, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, South Korea, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom. Surveys were conducted face to face in Hungary, Poland, India, Indonesia, Israel, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Argentina, Brazil and Mexico. In Australia, we used a mixed-mode probability-based online panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the United States, we surveyed 3,576 U.S. adults from March 20 to 26, 2023. Everyone who took part in this survey is a member of the Center\u2019s American Trends Panel (ATP), an online survey panel that is recruited through national, random sampling of residential addresses. This way nearly all U.S. adults have a chance of selection. The survey is weighted to be representative of the U.S. adult population by gender, race, ethnicity, partisan affiliation, education and other categories. <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/our-methods\/u-s-surveys\/the-american-trends-panel\/\">Read more about the ATP\u2019s methodology<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are the <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/global\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/07\/PG_2023.07.10_Russia-NATO_Topline.pdf\">questions used for the report<\/a>, along with responses, and the <a href=\"#_Methodology\">survey methodology<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>CORRECTION (Sept. 8, 2023): A previous version of this report included an incorrect chart.

NATO has been consistently <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/global\/2022\/06\/22\/positive-ratings-for-nato\/\">viewed more favorably<\/a> than not <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/short-reads\/2021\/06\/10\/nato-continues-to-be-seen-in-a-favorable-light-by-people-in-member-states\/\">in recent years<\/a>, and views have grown slightly more positive in Greece and Poland since 2022. However, negative opinion of NATO has crept upward in Hungary and the U.S. While about six-in-ten Americans continue to express a favorable view of NATO, there is a large partisan difference on this question: 76% of Democrats see the alliance positively, compared with 49% of Republicans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 11 European countries surveyed, as well as India \u2013 where Russian oil access is a relevant issue \u2013&nbsp;people were asked if being tough with Russia on Ukraine or maintaining access to Russia\u2019s oil and gas reserves is more important to bilateral relations. Across these countries, a median of 66% say it is more important to be tough with Russia, while 29% say it is more important to maintain access to Russia\u2019s energy reserves. People in Hungary, India and Greece are the most likely to want to maintain access to Russia\u2019s oil and gas reserves, while Swedes and Poles are the most likely to want to be tough on Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In several ways, publics in Greece, Hungary and India are outliers when it comes to views about Russia and Putin. Greeks and Hungarians stand out relative to European counterparts as being more favorable on Russia, confident in Putin and negative toward Zelenskyy. Hungary, in particular, has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/03\/25\/world\/europe\/eu-zelensky-hungary-sanctions-ukraine.html\">faced criticism<\/a> for delays in sanctioning Russia, while public sentiments in Greece have tended to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/ukraine-greece-year-caution-weapon-invasion-military\/\">favor remaining neutral<\/a> in the conflict. India (which has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/interactive\/2023\/02\/23\/world\/russia-ukraine-geopolitics.html\">abstained<\/a> from condemning the Russian invasion) is the only country where a majority expresses a favorable view of Russia and confidence in Putin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These findings come from a new Pew Research Center survey conducted from Feb. 20 to May 22, 2023, among 30,861 people in 24 countries. Below are some of the other findings regarding views of Russia and NATO, attitudes toward Russian energy and confidence in Putin, Zelenskyy and key NATO leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ratings-of-russia-and-putin-in-middle-income-nations\">Ratings of Russia and Putin in middle-income nations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The survey includes eight <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldbank.org\/en\/country\/mic\/overview\">middle-income nations<\/a> that Pew Research Center has not surveyed since 2019 due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/short-reads\/2020\/04\/30\/the-coronavirus-pandemics-impact-on-pew-research-centers-global-polling\/\">subsequent difficulties<\/a> in conducting face-to-face interviews across the world. Opinions toward Russia and Putin are on balance negative in these countries, although India and Indonesia are exceptions. Negative sentiment toward Russia and Putin has increased by double digits in nearly every middle-income country since 2019.
