It found that Europeans tend to believe that Ukraine won't defeat Russia on the battlefield. Roughly a third to half of those surveyed believe the war will end in a negotiated settlement, and up to 31 percent (Greece) see a Russian victory as most likely. Of the EU countries surveyed, only in Estonia was a Ukraine victory the prevailing view (38 percent), Politico said.
