According to a CBS News/YouGov survey, a majority of Americans support economic sanctions and sending aid to Ukraine, with a smaller majority also in favor of sending weapons. However, Republicans have become more divided on these issues, with increasing resistance to sending aid and opposition to sending weapons. Most Republicans and 40% of independents believe the Biden administration should be doing less to help Ukraine, while Democrats generally think the administration is handling things appropriately. On the topic of China, most Americans think President Biden is being too lenient, although a majority of Democrats believe he is handling the situation correctly. Overall, Americans are increasingly pessimistic about global peace and stability, with the majority believing that President Biden is weakening the US position in the world.
