The survey was conducted on February 3-9 by Socis, on a representative sample of 2,000 people. The results were published by the editorial office of New Voice Ukraine.

Respondents were asked the following question: "According to the Constitution, the powers of the President of Ukraine and the Verkhovna Rada expired last year, but the law does not allow elections to be held under martial law. Do you think the President and the Verkhovna Rada are acting legally today? "

61.3% of respondents answered in the affirmative. 30.5% of respondents were of the opposite opinion.
