Due to the public opinion survey published by the National Democratic Institute (NDI), reflecting public sentiment regarding Georgias EU and NATO membership, 82% of respondents consider the stated goal of the Georgian government to become a member of the EU acceptable, while 10% deem it undesirable.<\/p>\n
As for the question concerning NATO membership: \"Is the stated goal of the Georgian government- to become a NATO member- acceptable for Georgia?\", 74% of the respondents give a positive answer, while 14% consider it unacceptable. 11% say they do not know.<\/p>\n
The survey reveals that Georgias accession to NATO and the European Union is supported by more people now than in previous years. A similar study published last year by the same organization showed that the goal of Georgia to become a member of the EU was deemed positive by 77% of respondents, negative by 13%, while 10% gave no concrete answer.<\/p>\n
The fieldwork of the survey was performed between November 19 and December 13 of 2019, through 2,180 face-to-face interviews with a nationwide representative sample (excluding occupied territories).<\/p>\n
