تنازعات · Refinery strikesUkraine refinery strikes poll: 80% back attacks despite threatened U.S. support cutsتحریری 29 اکتوبر، 2026 کو 11:15 AM UTCدیکھیںنقلِ متن0:07Four in five survey respondents backed refinery strikes despite a threatened loss of0:11American support.0:12The choice puts pressure on Russia's oil economy against assistance Ukraine relies0:16on to fight and defend its people.0:17Respondents faced a scenario in which Russia offered no reciprocal restraint.0:21What did people agree to risk?0:23And what protection were they offered in return?0:25The interviews took place in government-controlled Ukraine.0:28Russia's refineries were the targets respondents were asked about.0:31The threatened American restrictions involved intelligence and Starlink, a satellite0:35communication service used in military operations.0:37Eighty percent favored continuing refinery strikes, even if the United States0:41stopped or limited support.0:43Eleven percent favored stopping.0:45That puts a substantial majority behind continuing the campaign under the conditions0:48they were given.0:49Another eight percent were undecided.0:51The published figures add up to ninety, nine percent because they're rounded to0:55whole numbers.0:55The stopping option left the duration open, so those respondents' answers don't tell1:00us how long they wanted the strikes halted.1:02Respondents were told Russia could keep attacking Ukrainian energy facilities,1:05homes, and other civilian sites.1:07Ukraine would stop its refinery attacks while Russia made no commitments.1:10The threat of losing American assistance was part of that same question.1:13The majority's preference applies to that one cited bargain.1:17How people would respond to an enforceable agreement protecting both countries'1:20energy infrastructure is still open.1:22Interviewers also randomized the order of the answer statements rather than always1:26presenting the same choice first.1:27President Donald Trump urged Ukraine to stop attacking Russian refineries and1:31declared an energy truce on October11 th.1:33President Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukraine then largely suspended those strikes for1:37three days.1:38Russia continued attacking Ukrainian energy facilities.1:41Russian refineries support the oil economy that helps finance the war.1:44For Ukrainian households, restraint carries another immediate concern: attacks on1:48their energy system threaten electricity and heating as winter approaches.1:52Stopping Ukrainian strikes would offer little reassurance without protection for1:55their own homes.1:56The interviews ran from October16 th through the twenty-fifth after that three-day2:00interval.2:00The results were published on October28,2026 .2:04They capture opinion during those interviews rather than a live reading of attitudes2:08after publication.2:09The questions were added on the polling institute's own initiative to its omnibus2:13survey, which covers several subjects.2:15Interviewers used computer, assisted telephone interviews.2:18They called randomly generated mobile numbers and then statistically weighted the2:21responses to better reflect the population being surveyed.2:24The sample included eight hundred and twenty-eight Ukrainian citizens aged eighteen2:28and older living in government-controlled territory.2:31Some had been displaced from occupied areas.2:33Their experiences are included, but the survey's reach stopped short of all2:37Ukrainians affected by the war.2:38Residents still living under Russian occupation were excluded.2:41So were citizens who had gone abroad after February24,2022.2:45The findings described the adults reached inside government, controlled Ukraine,2:49with those important gaps in a population scattered by war.2:52The formal error benchmarks vary.2:54Near fifty percent, it's plus or minus four point four percentage points.2:58Near twenty-five percent, it's three point eight points.3:01Near ten percent, it's two point seven points.3:04Near five percent, it's one point nine points.3:06Those calculations assume normal circumstances and ninety-five percent confidence.3:10With a survey design adjustment of one point three, war can introduce additional3:14bias beyond that sampling error, random calling and waiting help, but can't remove3:18every problem caused by displacement, occupation and disrupted lives.3:22Ukraine said it faced a temporary pause in American intelligence about incoming3:26Russian ballistic missiles and restrictions on Starlink operations.3:29It also described delays in Patriot Air, defense missile shipments as Washington3:33increased pressure over the refinery campaign.3:35The US administration denied ordering restrictions to pressure Kyiv.3:39The two governments disagree about that connection.3:41The survey question presented the threat to respondents, but their answers can't3:45settle why any interruption or delay happened.3:47In separate questions,76 % supported continued armed resistance, even if winter3:52attacks disrupted electricity, heat, and sewage.3:55Sixty-three percent said they were prepared to endure the war as long as necessary.3:59Those answers concern broader resistance, alongside the specific refinery strike4:03choice.4:04Whether Ukraine can sustain refinery strikes while preserving assistance needed to4:07defend its people is still unresolved.4:09In the choice respondents faced, stopping the strikes came with no Russian promise4:13to protect their homes.مضمون پڑھیںخبر کی زمانی
