The poll took place between January 2 and 11, surveying 1,006 respondents. These data are representative of Latvian residents aged 18-74 who use the Internet at least once a week.
The statement posed by the survey was "The country should seek to keep Ukrainian refugees after the war to alleviate the problems of Latvian demography and labor."
Only 6% of those surveyed certainly agreed with the statement, and 14% slightly agreed.
31% of respondents were neutral about this – neither agreed nor disagreed. 24% of respondents slightly disagreed, 17% completely disagreed.
People in the 40-49 age group were more dismissive, with 23% certainly disagreeing with the claim in that group. Residents of Latgale were also less likely to agree with the proposition.
