If a presidential election was held in Ukraine today, current President Petro Poroshenko would have received 13.6 percent of the vote instead of 54.7 percent he secured last May in what is a dramatic fall in popularity.

These are the results of the latest opinion poll carried out by the Kiev International Institute of Sociology (KIIS).

Other Ukrainian politicians fared even worse. If a presidential poll was held in Ukraine in late May, former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko would have taken her place as the runner up with 7.2 percent.

Approximately 4.2 percent of respondents said they would have voted for the leader of Ukraine’s nationalist Radical Party, Oleh Lyashko. Less than 4 percent would have opted for the mayor of Lviv Andrey Sadovoy.

A total of 2022 people from 108 localities across Ukraine took part in the survey conducted on May 19-29.
