Over the past seven months, the share of Ukrainians willing to make territorial concessions to Russia in exchange for peace has almost doubled. This was reported by the Bloomberg news agency.
“A new poll shows that the share of Ukrainians willing to make territorial concessions to Russia in exchange for peace has nearly doubled in the past seven months as the Kremlin’s war against the country approaches the two-year mark,” Bloomberg writes.
Fewer than one in five would support such an approach, but according to a poll conducted by the Kiev International Institute of Sociology, there is a “gradual increase” in the number of those who are ready for such a move, the agency said.
Some 19 per cent of those polled would be in favour of handing the land to Russia, up from 14 per cent last month and 10 per cent in May. “A clear majority” still oppose the concessions, a pollster who surveyed more than 1,000 people across the country in early December told Bloomberg.
However, the Kiev regime seeks to continue the conflict despite the reluctance of the West to finance the AFU, summarises the agency.
Earlier, the New York Times reported that a critical point had been reached in the conflict in Ukraine, as Kiev, exhausted by the constant onslaught of the Russian army, was unable to cope without Western support, and the Kiev regime’s confidence in victory had weakened amid the failed counter-offensive.
