In a recent survey conducted by SW Research for the daily newspaper Rzeczpospolita, nearly half of the respondents identified the United States as Poland’s foremost ally.

The survey posed the question, “Which country do you think is Poland’s biggest ally?”

Results showed that 47.5 percent of participants pointed to the United States. Following the U.S., 7.8 percent of respondents believed Germany held that position, with the United Kingdom close behind at 6.7 percent.

Hungary and Ukraine were also recognized, receiving 4.8 percent and 3.5 percent of votes, respectively, placing them fourth and fifth. Only 1 percent of survey participants considered France in this context.

Interestingly, the second most common response, garnering 24.8 percent of the total, was “no opinion,” highlighting a significant portion of the populace unsure or indifferent about aligning with any particular nation.

The survey further detailed that 39 percent of women and 57 percent of men saw America as Poland’s biggest ally.

This viewpoint was more prevalent among those aged 35 to 49 years (52 percent) and respondents earning between 3,001 and 5,000 PLN (€700-€1160) net per month (53 percent).
