Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has reaffimed his firm refusal to cede any territory, resisting U.S. pressure for a painful compromise with Russia as he continued to rally European support for Ukraine.
“Undoubtedly, Russia insists for us to give up territories. We, clearly, don’t want to give up anything. That’s what we are fighting for,” Zelenskyy said in a WhatsApp chat late Monday in which he answered reporters’ questions.
“Do we consider ceding any territories? According to the law we don’t have such right. According to Ukraine’s law, our constitution, international law, and to be frank, we don’t have a moral right either.”
You didn’t answer the question. Personally i wouldn’t want to go in ukraine risking to be burned alive fighting over invisible lines on a map so that a government can claim its theirs. For this reason i do not advocate for war or back the ones who are forcing other people to fight.
The majority of Ukrainians do not support ceding territory.
And what a stupid fucking thought process you have going. Russia invaded Ukraine, they should be fucking leaving not having tankie shits suggesting that Ukrainians should just give up.
Answer the question yourself, if you care so much about ukraine land and are afraid about russia why don’t you go on the front lines?
A stupid though process is to believe that something is good only because you are not getting your hands dirty and others are doing it for you. Ukrainians should be allowed to do what the fuck they want, if case you aren’t aware people are being drafted by force and many haven’t been able to left the country for years.

Recently men beetween 18-22 were allowed to leave the border (after two years of not being able to) and many left the country.
That’s fair, I hope you like being invaded and having another country rule over you.
It’s up to ukrainian people to decide what they want to do, not to the martial law or any ruler.
Fueling this war and empowering authoritarian governments is how we all end up under a boot. There are plenty of countries that are still in business with russia including USA (both current and previous administration). Fighting over inches of land benefits governments not the people that are long gone from that burned land.
Right, it’s up to them until russia anexes them, and they end up under russia boot.
if you don’t think it’s up to people to decide you are welcome on the frontlines to defend land.
It is up to the people. They are defending their home land lol

Yeah some are running, most aren’t. Where’s this for deserters in the russian army? By your logic the russians don’t want to fight and putler isn’t listening to his people
As far i’m aware russians are free to leave the country
If people wanted to fight there would be no draft. When you defend drafting people by force by the same logic you are defending it for putler too.
