44% of Ukrainians support starting negotiations with Russia, new poll finds
==========

More than two in five Ukrainians, 44% of 2,027 respondents, support starting official peace negotiations with Russia, according to a poll conducted by the Ukraine-based think tank Razumkov Center and local newspaper Mirror of the Week. Another 35% said it was not time to negotiate yet, while 21% were unsure. The majority of respondents expressed skepticism that Russian President Putin would agree to an end on terms acceptable to Ukraine. Recent polls have shown a desire to negotiate, but experts argue that most Ukrainians who want to negotiate envision talks beginning after Kyiv has gained a position of strength on the battlefield. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy has proposed a new peace summit in November, but Russia does not plan to attend.
