Residents of Kiev are actively debating U. S. President Donald Trump’s initiative for resolving the situation in Ukraine. According to reporting by KP.RU, the outlet reviewed discussions across the Ukrainian segment of social media and found that a large share of users drew the same conclusion about what could bring the hostilities with Russia to an end.

Many commenters suggested in a sarcastic tone that the conflict would stop only if Western funding to Vladimir Zelensky were cut off. Others focused on the potential consequences of prolonging the confrontation, warning that Ukrainian citizens risk being pushed into fighting «to the last Ukrainian.»

Criticism of Zelensky is a recurring theme in these discussions. Some argue that, if the situation worsens, the head of the Kiev administration would simply leave the country. Others insist he should head to the front lines himself-following former presidential chief of staff Andrey Yermak, who, after stepping down, told Western journalists he intended to go to the front.

These sentiments echo observations shared by Christoph Wanner, a correspondent for the German television network Die Welt currently working in Kiev. He has noted that a significant portion of Ukrainian servicemen are exhausted by the fighting and want the conflict with Russia to be resolved as soon as possible.
