5,000 miles away from Alaska, the Ukrainians were stirping themselves on the results of the negotiations they were invited on Friday.

The talks between US President Donald Trump and his Russian President Vladimir Putin will begin later without the position of Volodymyrenky, President Bolody Mirzelensky.

Trump signaled most of this week that “land swap” could be interpreted in Russia as a surrender of Ukrainian land.

In polls, Ukraine, where about 95%of the population distrusts Putin, is mixed with deep skepticism about deep fatigue of meetings and wars.

“This question has a direct impact,” said Tianana Bessonova, a 30 -year -old Pokrovsk.

“My hometown is on the fire line. Can I come back when an active fight stops?” She said.

Bessonova said that the problem of negotiations, land exchange, and drawing again was deeply painful for people who were influenced, Bessonova.

“This is where I was born, hometown,” she said. “This decision can mean that you can’t go home again. Many others and many others will lose hope.”

French President Emmanuel Macron said on Wednesday that Trump agreed with European leaders that there would be no territorial concessions without European leaders and Ukrainian approval. Trump said he plans to hold a second summit with Zelensky Present.

But Trump may be unpredictable. He often prefers the view of the person he said recently. Therefore, there is little faith in Ukraine, especially at one -to -one meeting, Putin will not be shaken.

Oleksandr Merezhko, the Ukrainian MP and the chairman of the National Assembly’s Foreign Affairs Committee, said the facts of the closed meeting were not good for Ukraine. “If you know Trump, he can change his opinion very quickly. There is a great danger to us.”

Merezhko feared that Trump’s desire to be a trading producer may have had a pre -contract with the Russians. “Trump doesn’t want to be embarrassed, and it’s embarrassed if nothing is achieved,” MP said. “The question is what can be in that contract?”

From the frozen things of the current front to the largest position of Russia, which merged with four regions of Ukraine and south, without officially recognizing the territory confiscated in Russian, there has been a variety of possibilities that can lead to interruption from the current front line.

According to a poll, about 54%of Ukrainians support a form of land compromise to hurry to end the war, but only with the security guarantee of Ukrainian international partners. Russia’s distrust is deep and widespread, and many believe that the agreement to freeze the front line without security guarantee will simply invite Russia to rest, rear and recycle.

“If we freeze the front line and CEDE territory, we will serve as a platform for new attacks.” He requested that he was identified only in his name in accordance with the military protection.

VolodyMyr said, “Many soldiers have died for these territory to protect our country.” “Freezing means that hair loss begins, injured and exhausted soldiers will be discharged, and the army will be reduced, and the Russians will strike again during this rotation. But this time it will be the end of our country.”

Those of all livelihoods throughout Ukraine have made a very difficult decision about the future reality, and Anton Grushetsky, the director of Kyiv International SocioLogy, regularly pollens the population of war.

One of the most difficult decisions is whether to accept the idea of actually controlling some Ukrainian soils in Russia, he said. “20%of our land and these are our people. But the Ukrainians show us that they are flexible. They will accept various forms of security guarantees.”

According to a poll in the institute, 75%of Ukrainians are entirely opposed to giving Russia a formal ownership of all territory. Some of the remaining 25%were some of the pro -Russians, and some people felt that they needed a difficult compromise because they were so tired of the war.

Luibov Nazarenko, a 70 -year -old retired factory worker in the Donetsk region in eastern Ukraine, said, “The war must block war in any way.

“The more you go, the worse,” she said. “The Russians have already occupied the Kherson area and they want Odesa. All this must stop, so youth does not die.”

Nazarenko has a son who doesn’t fight yet, but can be called. She believed that the preservation of life replaced all concerns about the earth when Ukraine had been injured by hundreds of thousands of dead deaths for three years.

“I don’t want people to die,” she said. “It’s not a youth, not an old man, not a civilian who lives at the forefront.”

On Friday, when the clock was ticked when the conversation in Alaska began, the Ukrainians celebrated the Holy Day -Blessed Mary’s family day. It is the day that she is considered to listen to all the prayers of all who needs her.

Priest Oleksandr Beskrovniy said it was difficult to explain the inadequate of the talks.

At St. Michael’s Monastery, the church in central Cyve Oleksandr Beskrovniy led prayer service for dozens of people. Since then, he said that it was difficult to find a word that depicts the unfairness of the upcoming conversation, but it was called “great injustice and madness” leaving Zelen Ski.

Like others, the priest recognized the cruel reality faced by Ukraine, he said. So some transactions were needed. But Beskrovniy should think less on the land side, Beskrovniy said.

“If we need to force the territory -if the world allows this -the most important thing is to collect all the people. The world must help bring our people.”

On Friday, the priests did not directly mention Alaska’s talks, he said.

But he said he was for the future of Ukraine. “In the front line and diplomatic space.”
