Poll: almost 50 percent of Czechs favour Ukraine joining the European Union

A new poll conducted by the RCA research agency has suggested that more almost 50 percent of Czechs are in favour of Ukraine joining the European Union. 49.5 percent answered in the affirmative in the poll, while 33 percent of respondents were against, the agency said. By comparison, support for Ukraine’s joining NATO is lower: the survey found that only 37 percent of Czechs agreed with Ukraine joining the organisation, while 35 percent were against.
