Significant Downturn in Positive Perceptions of Polish–US Relations
Compared to the survey results of two years ago, when President Joe Biden came to Warsaw and confirmed US support for both Ukraine and the eastern flank of Nato, positive assessments of Polish–US relations have plummeted – they are now virtually fifty percentage points lower (down from 80% to 31%). At the same time ambivalence has soared (from 14% to 52%) and negative assessments have also markedly risen (from 1% to 10%). These results are hardly better than those noted by CBOS prior to 1989, when Poland, as part of the Warsaw Pact, was subordinate to the USSR and thus hostile to the USA.
