00:00Most EU citizens don't view defence as a top investment priority.
00:10A recent Eurobarometer poll showed EU citizens are not exactly eager to spend money on defence,
00:17despite growing warnings from NATO and the EU about the risk of future conflicts.
00:23Fewer than one in four people want the bloc to pour money into defence.
00:28In fact, defence infrastructure and capabilities rank only 7th out of 10 proposed areas of investment.
00:36However, public opinion across the bloc seems deeply fractured.
00:40Unsurprisingly, support is highest among Russia's close neighbours,
00:4550% in Estonia, 46% in both Finland and Lithuania,
00:50while backing is much lower in countries like Italy, Bulgaria, Spain, Ireland,
00:57Slovenia and Hungary.
00:59Instead of defence, respondents point to areas like health and education as top priorities.
01:06These are followed by climate action and environment protection.
01:10Denmark is the most climate-concerned country before Malta and Italy.
01:15Job creation is the third most pressing issue across the bloc, followed by housing.
01:21On the other hand, amid growing pressure from mass travel,
01:25tourism received the least support for public investment.
01:30The most pressing issue has also been made in Manchester and westernerns of Go.
