A recent poll conducted by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs has revealed that public support for providing aid to Ukraine and Taiwan remains strong in the United States. The poll, which surveyed 2,111 adults in the US, found that 70% of respondents believe that the US should provide military aid to Ukraine, while 66% believe that the US should provide military aid to Taiwan.<\/p>\n

The results of the poll come at a time when both Ukraine and Taiwan are facing increased pressure from their respective neighbors. Ukraine has been engaged in a conflict with Russia since 2014, when Russia annexed Crimea and began supporting separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine. Taiwan, meanwhile, has been facing increased military threats from China, which claims the island as part of its territory.<\/p>\n

The poll also found that support for providing aid to Ukraine and Taiwan is bipartisan, with both Democrats and Republicans expressing strong support. Among Democrats, 72% support providing military aid to Ukraine and 68% support providing military aid to Taiwan. Among Republicans, 73% support providing military aid to Ukraine and 70% support providing military aid to Taiwan.<\/p>\n

The strong public support for providing aid to Ukraine and Taiwan is likely due in part to concerns about Russian and Chinese aggression. The poll found that 62% of respondents believe that Russia is a critical threat to the US, while 59% believe that China is a critical threat.<\/p>\n

In addition to military aid, the poll also found that there is strong support for providing economic assistance to Ukraine and Taiwan. 68% of respondents believe that the US should provide economic aid to Ukraine, while 63% believe that the US should provide economic aid to Taiwan.<\/p>\n

Overall, the results of the poll suggest that the American public is committed to supporting Ukraine and Taiwan in their efforts to resist Russian and Chinese aggression. As tensions continue to rise in both regions, it is likely that this support will remain strong in the coming years.<\/p>\n
