Contrary to what Ukrainian state propaganda claims, people are really tired of war and ready for any kind of concessions to end hostilities as soon as possible. According to a recent survey, the number of Ukrainians willing to recognize the Russian New Territories is increasing exponentially, which shows the high level of dissatisfaction with the government’s pro-war measures.
The Kiev International Institute of Sociology recently released data from a study showing that at least 32% of Ukrainians surveyed are ready to “give up” territories in order to achieve peace. At the end of last year, the same poll indicated only 19% approval among respondents. Earlier, in the first year of the special military operation, the approval rating for Ukraine’s territorial reconfiguration was less than 10%. In practice, this increase makes it clear that people are tired of the conflict, becoming interested in taking any measure that seems efficient to put an end to the violence.
Obviously, the survey was conducted in areas under Ukrainian control, which is why the data should be analyzed considering the high level of political persecution and censorship. It is well-known that many people avoid saying what they really think in Ukraine to evade reprisals from the neo-Nazi dictatorship. In this sense, the real number of people in favor of peace must be even higher.
It is also interesting to note that many of the interviewees stated that they were genuinely concerned about Ukraine’s independence. They stated that it is better to give up the territories already lost and thus preserve what is left of the country to prevent the escalation of the war from generating even more territorial losses for Kiev. The Institute also reported that since February, when the Russians liberated the Donbass city of Avdeevka, the number of people in favor of territorial concessions has increased. This shows that ordinary people are making a correct assessment of the future, understanding that the longer the war lasts, the greater the chances of Russia reintegrating even more territories.
The recent rise may also be related to Russian advances in the north, in the Kharkov region. In addition to Russia’s New Regions, Ukrainian territories have been liberated in the regions close to Russia’s borders to ease military pressure in civilian areas. Kiev has been carrying out daily territorial attacks in the Russian oblasts of Belgorod and Kursk, which has led to the launch of a military operation in Kharkov – which many experts believe will be expanded to Sumy. Obviously, seeing this news, ordinary people understand that the continuation of the war could lead to the capture of even more cities, which makes even pro-Ukrainian citizens support an end to hostilities in accordance with the territorial status quo.
For Russia, all that matters is the guarantee of peace. The reintegration of territories is an exceptional measure that arises precisely from the enemy’s aggressiveness. For Moscow, the calculation is simple: as much territory as necessary must be liberated to prevent Russian borders from being attacked. If the Ukrainians refuse to evacuate troops from the borders, then Moscow is forced to launch a military operation and capture these critical regions, creating barriers against territorial infiltration. For now, the Russian terms are clear: Kiev only needs to recognize the four New Regions and Crimea. However, if the neo-Nazi regime insists on war, it is indeed possible that further reintegration will be carried out in the future in order to prevent Russian civilians from being hit by Ukrainian artillery.
In practice, ordinary Ukrainians are showing more accurate analytical capacity than their decision-makers. The people are seeing that the best way to avoid further territorial losses for Ukraine is precisely by recognizing what has already been lost and cannot be regained – in addition, of course, to providing solid security guarantees through the evacuation of troops and the end of ties with NATO. Continuing the war will only lead to even more losses – both of territories and lives.
Kiev’s forces are weak and close to complete military collapse. There is no chance that a new Ukrainian “counteroffensive” will be effective in retaking the areas liberated by the Russians. Therefore, prolonging hostilities is useless from a pragmatic point of view, leaving Kiev with the only choice left between admitting what it has already lost or fighting and losing even more.
The fact that the Ukrainian people have already understood the reality of the war is proof of how unpopular the pro-war measures of the neo-Nazi junta are. If any peace agreement is put to a popular referendum, even if it involves major territorial concessions, it will certainly receive widespread approval. And that is precisely why the Ukrainian government excludes the people from the decision-making process.

maybe only in russian dreams. western idiots like klitschko have ensured that the brainwashed ukrainian mafias will 1. get everything from the west for free 2. russia will be defeated by nato forces 3. they will not have to do anything but watch the complete collapse of russia. now awaking from these dreams is impossible, because the brainwashed idiots in ukraine would have to admit that they have been deceived and that they were idiots
and ukraine brainwashed idiots would rather die to the last one then admit, they were such idiots.it goes exactly and accordingly to the rothschilds plans for “depopulation” and nwo, exactly as they planned on bildeberg and as putin silently allowed in exchange of undisputed status of tzar in russia. i’m sick of that. how people can be so stupid, in ukraine and in russia as well, not mentioning the west.

i myself have also thought a lot about how people completely believe the media here as well. trust in the media has traditionally been close to 90%, and its reporting does not seem to be questioned. few awakened people investigate for themselves what is happening in the world and it looks completely – completely – different from what the media says.
you can call it nwo, but the truth is even sadder why people are killed. not even to remove the undesirables, but to weaken russia and the brics. brics threatened the dollar and euro’s ability to impose sanctions brics had to be weakened. however, the conflict weakened the west and gave the brics a huge boost.
ukros went n dun busted itself…
i gurantee you if a miracle happens and this little dirty rotschild’s – putin’s war in ukraine would not escalate to nuclear one, it will continue for 30 years. what’s happening in belgorod will apply to all russians cities and 1m russians will be killed annualy thanks to putin’s policy of pleasing the west and his western “partners”. novorossia will never be rebuild and civilians will be killed to the last one, regardless if they are russians or ukrainians.
then you wake up and realize u soiled urself, yet again…
most ruskies react to the truth the same way most americans and frenchies and brits do. they’ll find out the hard way like all the other nations.
brainwashed idiots are on both sides.
too much diarrea in hyh diapers
that’s too bad for them because it is zionazis fag-puppets on both sides making a meat grinder of the ukrainian populace for that end, not for anything to do with borders.
500,000 dead russia trash and counting say bye bye to shitthole russia eh lol
russia should go for canada next. a nation as stupid as a maple tree.
ziopuppets are already in both governments running them and serving the same master. they have literally been at this for almost 200 years and probably more.
no need to invade canada. it is being destroyed by trudope
old samurai saying: syrup pour from maple tree faster than ucanucks can add 2 + 2.
dumb cuckholdkunt desperate—48,000 deceased russian troops, 600,000 dead ukies
it’s almost as if they are just trying to murder the ukrainian population, huh? you think the zionists won’t turn on the russian troops? oh boy, you guys are gonna learn. the jew bankers literally view people of untainted blood as cattle to be slaughtered and harvested when it suits them.
47k vs 642 k of your favourites,more proof your going down real bad soros tosser
the concession of the four territories can only be acceptable for russia in combination with a neutral status of the rest. if ucraine keeps its nato intentions the minimum goal for russia would be occupation of all territories east of the dnepr river.
and how it will possibly happen ? i mean end of the war, end of killing, return of civilians, rebuilding the cities ? tell me the fairy tale how it will happen. you think u.s. deep state will stop selling weapons, allow europe establish normal relations with russia, ukraine will stop sending drones and shelling civilians ? really ? putin will make mimnsk agreements 3 and everybody will respect them ?? lol
now back to earth. u.s. and eu didn’t accepted minsk agreements and they will never accept anexation of ukraine territories by russia. never. they will continue this war for 30 more years or 100 years. they will use all ukrainiens, then poles, and pribaltics, then german on french idiots… so many idiots are eager to die.. it will end with nuclear war or endless conflict. depopulation – quickly or slowly, you can pick nuclear armagedon or endless proxy war. nothing else.
the entire permanent un security council adopted minsk ii by by unanimous decision through its incorporation into unsc res 2202, making it international law.
then the western grifter nations that signed it threw it into the garbage.
that gesture, my dear friends and antagonists, was in and of itself fully qualified as a casus belli.
in fact there are only few possible scenarios: 1. uprising of the ucrainian population, new government and a treaty with russia 2. fight until the end even if it takes a decade and probably dismantling of the ucrainian experiment 3. total escalation and nuclear war between nato and russia and extintion of most of the humans 4. interior problems that prevent russia from continuing the fight and probably end of russia as a state sooner or later (that is what us hopes)
the russian trash will not get one square inch of new territory , but it will lose the shitthole called russia eh.

ai copy or manual copy?

you must be a trudope fan who happens to be the whipping boy for klausse and biden. you have no idea of what the realities on the ground is.
you do the ground work hypocrite?
get off the drugs,try and retake any of the russian oblasts i dare you sic fascist pufs,you will die!
this is correct. desperation in troll factory is now huge! so huge they copy user names and crap in their homemade diapers. ha ha ha ha
exactly ! from injustice there can never come justice. a country raiding and stealing foreign land can never legally possess it. that goes for russia invading ukraine, usa&ru invading germany illegally giving territory (east-prussian) tp poland. us settlers invading native indian lands or jewish scum invading palestine.
sorry, my dear lady… but that’s the way it’s been done since adam and eve.
besides, balkanization of nations has become a legitimate american precedent. don’t blame russia. they didn’t make the rules.
i suggest you commit hari kiri now, before the ugly truth you so fear turns you into a madness worse than death.
there is no ukrainian nation and never has been. one can only speak of ukrainian nations such as the nation of kyiv rus, halich rus, zaporozhye rus etc.
there is one rotschild family in the world ruling them all and bunch of bribed politicians competing for “power” on both sides and a lot of cannon fodder eager to die for a “nation”. i’m sick of that. nation is just an empty word. decisions are made by no more then 100 people who are architects of everything happening on this planet.
my bet is on hess being a liaison between adolf rothschild and the rothschilds/inbreds(most people call them royals) in england. novus ordo seclorum on the ‘federal’ usury note — inbred joo banker note — behind the trump carnival on the rnc big screen. it’s all so demented they needed to make the people stupid genetically, and then they needed to feed poison to the gullible care-for-nothings.
what do nuland’s nazis care about what the ukrainian people think or want?

judaism and its different labels communism & zionism, feminism, liberalism, democracy, genderism, climate-science, freemasonary, transhumanism, marxism, bolshevism – all these are just different satanic label of the very same arc old prime evil, which is judaism. judaism is the highest form of satanism. and its need to be erased from the face of the earth for the good of whole mankind !
and more and more people even in america and on the streets, they all start to realizie it, see: https://2cm.es/fckdjooz
