Ukrainians’ answers to the thesis about the loss of relevance of the marathon format were distributed as follows: 29.4% – completely agree; 13.5% – rather agree; 19.8% – both yes and no; 11.6% rather disagree; 10.4% do not agree at all; 15.3% – difficult to answer.

It is looking for concrete ways to bring ordinary people into the work of defense and resistance.
