Like 20% of the population will always support whoever is in power, another 10% will unless everyone is actively dying where they live, and then 30%-40% don't care enough about politics to do wrongspeak. I don't know what poll you're looking at, but any additional percent is probably related to who's doing the polling. Maybe 2% is there that actually supports it out of genuine independent thought, and even that I doubt because it's just an objectively stupid war.
TL;DR we're all just humans, and your countrymen would too in the same situation.
