It is interesting that the survey from the Rating Group showed significantly greater support for the legalization of same-sex family unions \u2014 in addition, even not as civil partnerships, but as full-fledged marriages \u2014 but the number of their opponents in both studies practically does not differ within the limits of statistical error.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, according to the results of all public opinion polls conducted since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion, the stance of Ukrainian society towards the legalization of same-sex unions is mostly tolerant \u2014 approving or indifferent \u2014 and this attitude is constantly improving.
