60% of Ukrainians are strongly opposed to handing over the entire Donbas region to Russia in exchange for guarantees, according to a poll

This is evidenced by the results of a public opinion poll.

According to the study, 60% of respondents said they consider such a scenario categorically unacceptable. At the same time, 33% of those surveyed are willing to accept such a condition, although most of them note that it would be a very difficult decision. Another 7% of survey participants remain undecided.

Compared to April, support for this scenario has declined slightly. While 57% of Ukrainians were strongly opposed to transferring the Donbas to Russia in the spring, that figure has now risen to 60%. At the same time, the share of those willing to agree to such a concession has dropped from 36% to 33%.

It is worth noting that in Russia, 62% of those surveyed believe it is time to move toward peace talks regarding the war against Ukraine. At the same time, the majority of respondents support the actions of the Russian military and advocate for intensifying attacks on Ukraine.
