According to a poll conducted by the Rating Sociological Group on March 30-31, 78% of respondents believe that things in Ukraine are moving in the right direction. Only 11% disagreed, 11% could not assess. In all regions and among all age groups, the assessment of the direction as correct continues to dominate.
