Polling also found a fifth of the public believe the EU’s response to the war in Ukraine to be “very bad”.

The Journal/Ireland Thinks poll found 72% of Irish citizens support Ukraine joining the EU.

This comes as accession talks began in December and additional war-time relief funding was just approved.
