War with Russia and Trump’s enmity with Europe
According to a survey by a French media, half of the residents of the European Union believe that the risk of war with Russia is “high” in the coming years.
According to RCO News Agency, the “Cluster17” survey company, which published the results in the French publication “Le Grand Continent”, conducted this survey among the residents of countries such as Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Poland, Holland, Belgium, Portugal and Croatia.
According to the results of this survey, 51% of the respondents in the mentioned countries consider the risk of war between the European Union and Russia to be “high”, while 46% underestimated it or believe that there is no such risk at all. The residents of Poland predicted the highest risk of war with 77%, while the residents of Italy stated the lowest risk with 65% or said that there is no such risk at all.
Citing the poll on whether the countries concerned would be “able to withstand Russia” in the event of a conflict, 69 percent said their country would not be able to withstand a conflict, while 26 percent said they could withstand Russia.
Meanwhile, 15% of the respondents in the mentioned countries assessed the risk of war with China as “high”, while 81% described it as low or no risk. It should be noted that for Iran, the respective figures were 17% versus 77% and for the United States, 10% versus 86% respectively.
Also, 48% of respondents called US President Donald Trump an “enemy of the European Union”, while only 10% called him a “friend” and 40% considered him “none”.
Regarding relations with the US and China, 55% of respondents said that the European Union should “maintain an equal distance from both”, and 20% prioritized relations with the US and 4% prioritized relations with China.
At the same time, residents of the surveyed countries still consider the risk of a full-scale war with “terrorist organizations” to be the most likely; 63% of respondents said the risk was “high”, while 31% said there was little or no risk. Residents of France considered it the highest risk with 86% and residents of Portugal considered it the least or not at all with 51%.
This survey was conducted from November 22 to 28 (December 1 to 7) with 9553 respondents and no margin of error was mentioned.
Russian President Vladimir Putin explained earlier in an interview with American journalist Tucker Carlson that Russia does not intend to attack NATO countries because this action does not bring any benefit to it.
In recent years, Russia has condemned NATO’s unprecedented activity along its western borders. The coalition is expanding its programs and faction, calling them “deterring Russian aggression.” Moscow has repeatedly expressed its concern about the increase in the forces of this alliance in Europe, and the Kremlin has also emphasized that Russia poses no threat to anyone, but will not ignore actions that are potentially dangerous to its interests.
