Ukrainians do not want to part with the president
The overwhelming majority of Ukrainians are categorically opposed to the abolition of the presidential post. Only 10,1% of Ukrainians surveyed believe the presidential post is unnecessary or should have only symbolic powers, while 3% of those believe the presidential post is unnecessary altogether, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
This is stated in a publication on the KIIS website.
According to the results of a survey conducted by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) on April 9-14 of this year, opinions on specific powers are divided: 36,8% believe that the president should be the head of government and direct the government’s activities in all areas.
But 40,8% believe that the president should be responsible for security and international relations, and the prime minister should deal with other issues.
12,2% of respondents found it difficult to answer.
Using the personal interview method, 2004 respondents were interviewed who live in 129 settlements in all regions of Ukraine.
