According to a study by United Surveys for Wirtualna Polska, Poles’ opinions regarding how to end the war in Ukraine depend very much on their political preferences, reports the Wydarzenia news portal.
The survey found that 39.6 percent of Poles believe that Ukraine should agree to partial concessions to end the conflict, while 24.6 percent of respondents think Ukraine should fight to regain its entire territory.
Another 21.8 percent support completely abandoning the idea of regaining the territories, considering peace to be more important than borders, while 14 percent of respondents have no opinion on the matter.
Breaking down responses based on party affiliation, out of respondents from the ruling coalition (KO, Left, Third Way), 42 percent believe that Ukraine should fight to regain the lands occupied by Russians. Some 35 percent of voters from this group support partial concessions, while 8 percent believe that Ukraine should completely abandon the idea of regaining the territories.
Opposition voters (PiS, Confederation) are more inclined to a Ukraine compromise, with 43 percent believing that Kyiv should agree to partial concessions, and 36 percent supporting complete renunciation of territories in the name of peace. Only 15 percent say that Ukraine should fight to the end.
U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff assessed after meeting with Vladimir Putin that the fate of four Ukrainian regions occupied by Russia will be key to any peace agreement. However, he declined to answer whether the United States will recognize Russian territorial gains.
