The most important takeaway from the recent Gallup survey of public sentiment in Ukraine isn’t that a majority Ukrainians want a negotiated ending to the war — other polls have shown this for some time — but that for the first time (as far as I know), among those who want an end to the war, a majority now agrees (or better, feels comfortable admitting) that Ukraine should be open to making some territorial concessions as a part of a peace deal. The actual number is likely to be much higher, given that there is no freedom of speech in Ukraine: just talking about this can get you landed in jail for high treason (see here: thomasfazi.com/p/ukrainian-d…). So what is the response of NATO and its puppet government in Ukraine? Well, of course, to massively escalate hostilities by striking Russia with US-made long-range missiles, in the hope of provoking a retaliation from Russia and disrupting any possibility of a peace deal. The Western so-called “friends of Ukraine” have never given a damn about Ukrainians or Ukrainian “agency”. In their eyes, Ukraine is nothing more than a battering ram to weaken Russia; Ukrainian lives are worth nothing. They will happily destroy the entire country — and wipe out most of its population — in the pursuit of their deranged geopolitical goals. I’m guessing a lot of Ukrainians are starting to wake up to the reality of what the West has done to them. news.gallup.com/poll/653495/…
