Introduction:
In April 2022, we conducted a survey to gauge the concerns of European citizens about the possibility of war and political unrest. This survey focused particularly on Scandinavian countries, with a specific emphasis on Sweden. In total, 100,000 people participated in this survey, providing a representative sample of the European population.
This survey confirms that the fear of war and political unrest is significant across Europe, with a particularly strong presence in Sweden. This underscores the need for policy measures aimed at increasing stability and security in the region to alleviate citizens' concerns. Governments and international organizations must collaborate to address the underlying causes of these fears and restore citizens' confidence in a peaceful future.
