ZELENSKY'S TIME UP? SOCIS Poll REVEALS Ukraine President At 9th As Fedorov Tops Trust Charts!

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has dropped to ninth place in public trust rankings, according to a SOCIS poll released on August 6, 2026, with a score of 0.42 on a 0–1 scale, trailing key military and security figures. Former Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov leads at 0.63, followed by Valerii Zaluzhnyi, Mykhailo Drapatyi and Kyrylo Budanov. The poll is being widely amplified by Fedorov’s support network, coinciding with his interview with former advisor Serhii Sternenko where he set August 18 as a timeline linked to his return to the defense ministry. The convergence of data and messaging is being viewed as a high-stakes pressure phase within Kyiv’s political landscape, with analysts pointing to intensifying competition and a rising narrative around a new leadership cohort dubbed the “young wolves,” as Ukraine approaches a potentially decisive parliamentary session.
