72% of Poles see Ukrainian crisis as threat to Poland's safety
At the beginning of February, in the heat of the anti-Yanukovych protests, 30 percent of Poles believed the situation in Ukraine represented a threat to Polish national safety. However, in March, after Russian troops have effectively taken control of the Crimean peninsula, 72 percent of Poles now fear the Ukrainian crisis is dangerous to Polish national security, pollster CBOS said.
Less than a quarter (24 percent) think the turmoil in Poland's eastern neighbor is no threat to Poland while 4 percent have no opinion on the issue.
