A majority of U.S. citizens do not trust President Donald Trump in his approach to the war launched by Russia against Ukraine.

This is according to a Pew Research Center poll released ahead of Trump's meeting with Putin, Ukrinform reports.

Specifically, 59% of respondents said they were "not too confident" or "not confident at all" that Trump can make "wise decisions" about Russia's war against Ukraine.

The public remains more likely to say Trump is favoring Russia too much (33%) than to say he is favoring Ukraine too much (6%). About three-in-ten (28%) say he is striking about the right balance. At the same time, 32% of Americans were undecided.

The survey was conducted from August 4 to 10 among 3,554 U.S. adults.
