82% of Ukrainians consider any territorial concessions for the sake of ending the war unacceptable. Only 10% believe that in order to achieve peace and maintain independence, some territories can be abandoned. This is evidenced by the results of a survey conducted by KIIS (Kyiv International Institute of Sociology).
In all regions of Ukraine, the majority of the population is against any territorial concessions. Even in the East, which is currently experiencing intense fighting, 68% respondents oppose concessions (only 19% are ready to make concessions), and 83% oppose concessions in the South (only 9% are ready).
It is also important to see that among the respondents currently living in the occupied territories, 77% are against any territorial concessions (18% are ready to make concessions). At the same time, among those who left the occupied territories after February 24, 2022, 82% oppose any concessions (only 5% support concessions).
