Which category of citizens is ready to accept territorial losses?
According to the survey, the highest readiness for concessions is among those who both distrust the president and believe that the West wants an unfair peace from Ukraine (56% are ready for concessions, 38% are strongly against).
At the same time, those who retain both trust in the President and trust in the West are the least ready to make concessions. Among them, 69% are categorically against concessions (against 24% who are ready for territorial concessions).
We remind you! Earlier, a poll was conducted in Ukraine on the readiness of citizens for peace talks with russia. Recent sociology shows that many citizens want to end the war as soon as possible.
