54% of the respondents say they fear possible occupation by Russia. “Three in four Bulgarians fear the use of nuclear weapons, which could explain why the country does not support a tough policy against Moscow and why Bulgarian society is seeking to adopt a neutral position on the war in Ukraine”, Euractive wrote.
50.3% of the polled expect NATO to help if Bulgaria is attacked. 41% of the respondents support membership in NATO and 33% are against.
Only 10% of the polled say they know the history of the Bulgarian-Russian relations. 80% of the respondents say they don’t feel confident in their knowledge, which provides fertile soil for Russian propaganda and distortion of historical facts.
