Nearly 56% of Ukrainians support ending the war with Russia through compromise and international mediation, according to a new poll published by European Pravda.

The survey, conducted June 6–11 by the Janus Institute, SOCIS Center for Social and Marketing Research, and Barometer of Public Opinion, included 2,000 adults across Ukraine, excluding occupied and front-line areas. It has a margin of error of ±2.6%.

The results highlight increasing war fatigue among Ukrainians amid a grinding conflict now in its fourth year, and growing openness to international efforts to help negotiate peace.

Key takeaways

  • Nearly 56% of Ukrainians favor a negotiated compromise to end the war.
  • Close to 17% support a temporary ceasefire along the current line of contact.
  • Only 12.8% want to fight until Ukraine regains its 1991 borders.
  • The poll surveyed 2,000 adults across Ukraine (excluding occupied/active combat areas).
  • It was conducted between June 6–11 with a margin of error of ±2.6%.
