Frequency58 conducted a survey focused on analyzing the level of agreement or disagreement on the effect of sanctions in relation to the humanitarian crisis.
With 37% agreeing with the negative effects on the crisis and 38% disagreeing, the result is a clear indication of the polarization on the issue for the date in question.
When approaching and looking for those who agree with the selected phrase, three parameters were established that correspond to the political self-definition of the participants.
As a result, it was found that, following the respective lines of the ruling and opposition blocs, it is the former that agrees that the sanctions imposed by the international community are responsible for the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela with 78%. While within the latter, the conviction falls to 60.4% of those surveyed who do not agree with the above.
However, it is within the non-aligned block where the situation is more complex, showing a difference of 0.2% between those in agreement and disagreement on the effects of the sanctions as of the date of the survey.
When we change the parameter to look at the level of agreement or disagreement based on the age-generation to which the respondents belong, the results repeat a similar pattern. Then, we have that it is generation X (45.2%) who most disagrees that it is the sanctions that have generated a humanitarian crisis in the country. On the other hand, it is the Boomer generation (43.6%) who is most in favor of the negative effect of the sanctions on the country.
Finally, the Millennials and the Silent generation show inverted results in regard to each other.
