Data from the third wave of the survey of the kalmius group

1. The survey was conducted by GfK Ukraine. Survey method is telephone interviews with calls to phones.
Survey period: from June 04 to June 20, 2018. 1966 respondents, 540 of them from Donetsk and Luhansk
regions (territories controlled by the Ukrainian government).
Weighted data for the total population (real sample of 1966 respondents) corresponds to the population
distribution by age/gender/settlement type and macro region according to State Statistics Service of Ukraine
data as of January 1, 2017; weighted data for the population of Donetska and Luhanska oblast corresponds
with the oblasts’ population distribution by age/gender/settlement type.
The data in the tables is given as weighted, and the total weighted sample of 1,500 respondents is displayed
for convenience. The survey was conducted in all regions of Ukraine, except for the uncontrolled part of
Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts and the Autonomous Republic of Crimea.

does not exceed 4.9%.

21. “Kalmius Group” is an informal association of Ukrainian analysts whose goal is to promote the restoration of the country’s
sovereignty in the temporarily occupied territories of Donetsk and Luhansk regions. Motivation of our Group’s activities is clear and
transparent — to contribute effectively and professionally to the restoration of the territorial integrity of the country. The name of
the coalition comes from the Kalmius River, which unites the free and temporarily occupied districts of the region and symbolizes
the hope of citizens on both sides of the demarcation line to peace-making by stopping the interstate conflict and restoring the
unity of Ukraine, the rule of law and order in the territories affected by the armed confrontation. More: www.kalmiusgroup.org
This study was presented by the “Kalmius Group” initiative under “Ukraine Confidence Building Initiative” (UCBI ІІ) project, funded
by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). The study was made possible thanks to the generous support
of the American people through USAID. The product content is the sole responsibility of the “Kalmius Group” and does not
necessarily reflect the views of USAID or the US Government.
