People in Western Europe are divided over how they feel about a peaceful settlement that would leave Russia in control of at least some parts of Ukrainian territories illegally seized since the invasion in February 2022, as reportedly planned by US Presidentelect Donald Trump.
Source the results of a December YouGov survey in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Denmark and the UK, as reported by European Pravda citing The Guardia Details Majorities in Sweden 57, Denmark 53 and the UK 51, as well as a significant minority 43 in Spain, said they would have a very or somewhat negative attitude to such an agreement, compared to only 37 in France and 31 in Germany and Italy.
It is unclear how any deal on Ukraine could be concluded.
Last week, Putin reiterated his maximalist goals, including Russian control of Crimea and four occupied Ukrainian oblasts, as well as the demilitarisation of Ukraine and a veto on its NATO membership.
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte criticised Western talk of a peace process as premature, saying that Ukraine must get what it needs to stop Putin from winning.
Background 47 of Ukrainians are ready to support Ukraines accession to NATO if part of the Ukrainian territories remain occupied by Russia.
Also, for the first time, more than half of Poles supported the idea that the war in Ukraine should end, even if it has to give up part of its territory or independence.
