Ukrainian poll shows improved attitudes toward Belarusians, but hard line on Lukashenka

A new poll by the Institute of Political Studies 'Political Sphere' shows Ukrainian attitudes toward Belarusians have improved (44.5% positive, up from 35.6%), but 78% support a tough policy toward the Belarusian authorities and three-quarters oppose Belarus's participation in peace negotiations. This indicates a persistent divide between people and regime in Ukrainian public opinion, reinforcing Kyiv's current stance.
