Poll: 83 Percent of Americans Back Increased Economic Sanctions on Russia

A new CNN poll conducted February 25–26 asked Americans: “In response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, do you favor or oppose increased economic sanctions against Russia?” Eighty-three percent said yes, while 17 percent said no.

“A smaller majority, 62%, also wanted to see the US do more to stop Russian military action in Ukraine, with 38% saying the country has already done enough,” CNN reports. “But the public is opposed to direct military action by the US: Only 42% were in favor of such a move should sanctions fail to work, with 58% opposed.”
