Czechs favor Zelensky, while Slovaks support Putin more

A February survey by NMS Market Research found that Czechs trust Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky more than Russian President Vladimir Putin, while Slovaks have more trust in Putin. However, the majority of both Czechs and Slovaks do not trust either leader. Russia began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine three years ago, and the war is still ongoing. The latest UN figures report at least 13,300 civilian deaths in Ukraine since 2022.
