return of amber mining to the legal field, increase of income limits for individual entrepreneurs, adoption of a law on the President impeachment, introduction of strict rules for transporting children in cars only in child seats, restrictions on withdrawing money to offshores, simplifying admission to Ukrainian universities for children from the occupied territories. Nevertheless, the latter three initiatives have a significant number of opponents (about 20%).
It is important that most of the above mentioned decisions of the Verkhovna Rada find equal approval among supporters of different political forces. However, there are those that cause opposition; for example, the decision to simplify admission to Ukrainian universities for children from the occupied territories receives support of the majority of voters in all parliamentary parties except “European Solidarity” (half oppose it). Similarly, decision to grant volunteers with the war participant status is approved by more than 80% of supporters of various political forces, except for "Opposition Platform – Za Zhyttia” (support is 56%).
Introduction of monetary rewards for whistleblowers, introduction of a ban on returning bankrupt banks to their owners (including Privatbank), and demonopolization of the alcohol industry are supported by about 50% of respondents. 40% support the abolition of the majority electoral system, 19% do not support it, and one-third assessed it neutrally.
On the other hand, legalization of the gambling business and introduction of the land market were perceived mostly negatively. About 60% of respondents do not support these decisions of the Verkhovna Rada, about a quarter supports them. The number of those who support the latter two decisions of the parliament is relatively higher among the youth and “Sluha Narodu”,” European Solidarity”, and “Holos” supporters.
The leader of the political forces rating (elections to the Verkhovna Rada) is “Sluha Narodu” party - 27.9% of those who have decided and intend to vote are ready to support it. “Opposition Platform – Za Zhyttia” is supported by 18.0%,” European Solidarity” party - by 14.7%,” Batkivshchyna” - 11.4%,” Radical Party” of Lyashko - 5.2%,” Syla i Chest” - 4.3%,” Shariy Party” - 3.4%,” Ukrainian Strategy of Hroysman” - 3.3%,” Svoboda” - 3.2%,” Holos” - 3.1%. The rating of other political forces is below 2%.
