The survey was conducted by PORU and it was presented in the Greek newspaper Kathimerini.
The agreement of the 20th of February is perceived by the 60% of the citizens as a success. Furthermore, 6 out of 10 Greek citizens declare their support to the negotiation strategy followed by the government. On the other hand, 30% of the population share an unfavorable view for the strategy followed by the government, while 1 out of 10 believes that it is not stable therefore it is neither right nor wrong.
Greeks still expect from the government to fulfill all its pre-electoral promises and they underline that any procrastination is due to the diplomatic tactic before the lenders.
On the question with regards to Grexit, public opinion expresses its fear for such a fact. This is a constant concern that is growing in the past two months. On the contrary, the percentage of those who consider Grexit as possible, is limited to 16%.
