Alexander #Zakharchenko has taken 1ST place in the popularity rating
The leader of the #Donetsk People's #Republic Alexander #Zakharchenko has taken first place in the popularity rating, compiled by the research results of the "Special status" sociological center. The results of the study were released today at a briefing in the press center of the Donetsk News Agency by the representative of "Special status" Irina Kryzhanovskaya.
The most popular person among the leaders of the DPR is the Head of the DPR Alexander Zakharchenko - the sociologist reported. – A positive and a rather positive attitude was expressed by 82% of the respondents with 99.3% recognition.
Kryzhanovskaya noted that the respondents who highly valued Zakharchenko, talked about their needs for benefits for working in harmful conditions and tend to favor the use of force for resolving the Donbas conflict.
The second highest level of trust is held by the Parliament Vice Speaker Dennis Pushilin (73%), - the representative of "Special status" continued. – The third place in the ranking of confidence was taken by the Deputy Commander of the Ministry of Defense Eduard Basurin (67%). In this case, 46% of the respondents rated him definitely positive with recognition of 96.1% (second place). The fourth place in the trust rating was taken by the Speaker of the DPR Parliament Andrei Purgin (66%).
The sociologist added that according to the survey, the people trust the government of the Republic in general. There is a connection between the scores of all political leaders: simply put, the respondents who place their trust in one of the political leaders proposed in the survey, in most cases trusted the others as well - Kryzhanovskaya said. This primarily suggests that the high positive assessment of the politicians was due to the public confidence in the political system of the Republic as a whole, and not just because of their public image or other characteristics.
The "Special status" research was conducted in the second half of March by personal interviews using a multistage sampling among the inhabitants of Donetsk, Makeyevka, Gorlovka, Snezhnoe, Shakhtersk, Thorez, Ilovaysk, Amvrosiyivka and Khartsyzsk. The study involved 2500 respondents.
