Gallup's Balkan Monitor survey conducted in June and July 2010 also showed that 48.8 percent of interviewed Kosovo Albanians believe this will soon happen. A majority of those interviewed also said that the Kosovo UDI was "a good thing".

In Albania, 62.8 percent of respondents said they supported the Greater Albania idea - down from last year's 68 percent. But in Kosovo, the figure grew since the unilateral declaration of independence, and reached 81 percent compared to the previous figure of 54 percent.

In Macedonia, ethnic Albanians are also more supportive of a Greater Albania. This year 51.9 percent backed the idea, compared to 44 percent two years ago, but the percent of those who believe the idea would in fact be realized is lower than last year - at 41.8 percent.
