Attitudes toward the initiative to return Uliana Suprun to the position of Minister of Health
- On March 23, 2020, a petition titled “Return Uliana Suprun to the position of Minister of Health of Ukraine” was registered on the website of electronic petitions to the President of Ukraine and has already collected the required number of signatures. Therefore, we decided to find out the opinion of Ukrainians on this issue. According to the results of a survey conducted by Rating Group during the fieldwork dates of April 12–13, 2020, 63% do not support the return of Uliana Suprun to the position of Minister of Health of Ukraine, 14% support it, and about one quarter were unable to answer this question.
- Relatively higher support for this initiative is observed in the western regions, where 21% are in favor and 49% are against. In the central regions, 14% support the initiative, while 65% are against it. The lowest level of support is recorded in the southern regions, where 11% are in favor and 73% are against, and in the eastern regions, where 8% are in favor and 62% are against. The strongest opposition to the idea of returning Uliana Suprun to the position is observed among older people, among whom more than 70% do not support this initiative.
