Support spans all voter groups, peaking among 2019 Tory supporters.
The survey, by the More in Common think-tank, also shows 65 per cent of voters want the Government to keep supporting Ukraine until it has reclaimed all the territories lost.
Eighty-one per cent of Britons fear that a Ukrainian defeat could embolden Vladimir Putin to target other nations.
More in Common director Luke Tryl told The Sun: “Any sign from any of the main parties that their determination to beat Putin is anything less than resolute will mean they find themselves on the wrong side of an electorate that continues to overwhelmingly say that Ukraine must win.”
