Trust in NATO (40.1%) and the EU (59.5%) in Bulgaria has increased by 8 and 5 percent respectively in comparison to 2023, according to a study by Gallup International Balkan on attitudes towards the two organizations.
Speaking to the BNR, head of the agency, Parvan Simeonov, said that when asked to choose between West and East, 49.9 percent of people chose the West, 17.1 percent - the East, while 25.5 percent were neutral. “Older generations are more nostalgic and looking for alternatives. Young people like today’s place of Bulgaria in the western club," Simeonov said.
He reported that the survey also checked the attitude towards different countries. "Germany is always first", Simeonov said. Trust in Germany among Bulgarians is 50% , in France - 39%, and in UK - 37%. Trust in Russia is 30% and trust in the USA is 27%.
