   Two thirds of Russians believe their country has enemies in the international arena, with the US, Ukraine and the EU topping the list, a fresh survey by independent pollster Levada Center has revealed.

   According to research conducted in early December, 66 percent of respondents considered that Russia has enemies, while 21 percent believed that the country exists in a peaceful international environment. Levada Center has been carrying out similar surveys for the last 23 years. The highest result in response to this question was recorded at the beginning of the Ukrainian conflict in 2014, when 84 percent of those surveyed said that Russia had enemies.

   When asked to specifically name Russia’s foreign enemies, the majority of respondents – 68 percent – singled out the US, which is no surprise as relations between Moscow and Washington are at their lowest in decades over accusations of election meddling, the imposition of sanctions, and other issues.

   Second-placed Ukraine was far behind the US on the enemy list on 29 percent, followed by the European Union on 14 percent. Poland, the Baltic states and other former Soviet republics, Germany and the UK were also among the answers.

   Meanwhile, NATO, which has been boosting its presence near Russian borders in recent years, was cited by just 6 percent of respondents, which was still more than terrorists from Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS), Al-Nusra Front, and other groups (5 percent). 23 percent of those surveyed also said ‘Yes’ when asked if they believed that Russia was “surrounded by enemies from all sides.”

Rosjanom wydaje się, że główni wrogowie Rosji to, poza USA, kraje UE (takie jak Niemcy, UK, Polska, Litwa, Łotwa, Estonia) i Ukraina.

Szkoda, że nie widzą, że ich głównym wrogiem jest Putin.
