REUTERS\/Sam Wolfe\/File Photo<\/div>\n<p>March 30, 2022<\/p>\n<p>By Jason Lange<\/p>\n<p>WASHINGTON (Reuters) \u2013     A bipartisan 55% of Americans support sending more U.S. troops to Washington\u2019s NATO allies in central and eastern Europe in response to Russia\u2019s five-week old invasion of Ukraine, according to a Reuters\/Ipsos poll completed on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>President Joe Biden has deployed thousands of additional troops to Europe to support North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies concerned by Moscow\u2019s war on its smaller neighbor. <\/p>\n<p>Biden has made clear no U.S. troops will be sent to Ukraine though Washington is supplying Kyiv with weapons and has aggressively sanctioned Russia\u2019s economy, including a ban on U.S. imports of Russian oil.<\/p>\n<p>Some 61% of Democrats and 54% of Republicans back further troop deployments to NATO countries, according to the Reuters\/Ipsos poll conducted on Monday and Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, the Pentagon announced a new tranche of U.S. troops and military hardware bound for NATO allies, including 10 F-18 jets and more than 200 personnel heading to eastern Europe, including Lithuania.<\/p>\n<p>There are currently more than 100,000 U.S. troops in Europe, up from the roughly 80,000 before Russian troops moved into Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>The poll also showed 61% of Americans feel U.S. sanctions on Russia are worth the price of higher fuel costs \u2013 even after gasoline prices surged at the onset of the war. <\/p>\n<p>That was almost unchanged from a Reuters\/Ipsos poll conducted a month earlier, though gasoline prices have surged by nearly 20% since then to $4.24 per gallon, according to automobile club AAA.<\/p>\n<p>Some 47% of Americans approve of how Biden has handled the Ukraine crisis, well above the Democratic leader\u2019s 39% rating on the economy, the poll showed.<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s overall popularity has sunk to the lowest levels of his presidency in recent weeks, a warning sign that his Democratic party could lose its razor-thin majorities in the U.S. Congress in the Nov. 8 midterm elections.<\/p>\n<p>The latest Reuters\/Ipsos poll was conducted online, in English, throughout the United States, gathering responses from 1,005 adults. It has a credibility interval, a measure of precision, of about 4 percentage points.<\/p>\n<p> (Reporting by Jason Lange; Editing by Scott Malone and Rosalba O\u2019Brien)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FILE PHOTO: U.S. Army soldiers from B Company, of the Division Sustainment Support Battalion, 3rd Division Sustainment Brigade, wait in a staging area before boarding a transport plane bound for<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":287,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1410809","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1410809","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/287"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1410809"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1410809\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1410809"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1410809"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1410809"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
