The findings were also broken down by trust in Zelenskyy.

"Attitudes towards this idea are virtually independent of trust in V. Zelenskyy. Among those who fully or mostly trust him, 47% and 45%, respectively, view the creation of a national unity coalition and a national salvation government positively.
