Which nations do Hungarians like and dislike the most?
Change language:
A new study revealed which nations Hungarian people like and dislike the most. Political preferences make a huge difference in the responses.
In a survey commissioned by Népszava, the Publicus public opinion research institute was tasked to ask Hungarians that at what extent they feel sympathy or antipathy towards other nations. In the survey, which was representative of age, gender and education level, respondents expressed their opinions on eighteen nations.
The most liked nations by Hungarians
The most liked nation according to the respondents was the Italians, with 84 percent of the respondents replying that they have a positive affinity towards them. They were closely followed by the Austrians, with 82 percent of the respondents saying they are positive in their opinion.
On the lowest step of the fictional podium are the Polish, with 81 percent. Just below Polish people are the Spanish and the Finnish, with both countries scoring above 80 percent of positive remarks from the respondents. The Spanish scored the lowest score on antipathy as well, with only 3 percent of the respondents stating that they do not like Spanish people.
The most disliked nations
The most disliked nation according to the respondents proved to be the Russian, with 47 percent of the respondents stating that they particularly dislike them. It was the only nation where antipathy was stronger in respondents, with only 44 percent of them stating they associate positive connotations with Russian people.
Oh Mikey, stop with the faux outrage. Orbanistan will be happy to put up another obscene amount of fake 97% billboards if opinion of their darling Putin starts to wane. Where is your outrage at the propaganda, eh Mikey? Such a little snowflake you are!
I have been told by my Hungarian wife and members of her family that Romania and Ukraine are generally disliked by Hungary. A few years back we traveled from Hungary to Romania and truly the Romanians do not like Hungarians either.
