Ukraine’s Capitulation to Russia Is Impossible: Consequences and Risks

3 months ago

Why Ukraine Will Not Surrender

From the very first days of the war, Ukraine’s leadership has made its position clear: the country’s independence and sovereignty are non-negotiable. Any attempt at capitulation would lead to even greater Russian aggression and the loss of statehood.

What Are the Risks of Capitulation?

If Ukraine, under pressure, were to make concessions to the Kremlin, the consequences could be catastrophic:

  1. Escalation of the conflict. Russia would use any ceasefire to prepare for new attacks. The next targets could be Mykolaiv, Odesa, Dnipro, and other strategically important regions.
  2. Threat to Europe. The Kremlin views Moldova, Georgia, and the Baltic states as part of its sphere of influence. If Ukraine surrenders, it would set a precedent that undermines the entire European security system.
  3. Loss of independence. Any agreement imposed by force would mean Ukraine gradually falling under Russian control.

The West Continues to Support Ukraine

Some skeptics suggest that the US and EU may reduce military aid to Kyiv. However, France, the UK, Germany, and other countries have confirmed that they will continue supporting Ukraine. Recent meetings in Paris (March 11) and London (March 15) led to discussions about deploying a peacekeeping contingent in Ukraine.

Ukraine’s capitulation is impossible. Even if international support weakens, the Ukrainian people will not surrender. History shows that aggressors cannot be appeased through concessions. The only path to peace is Ukraine’s victory, the liberation of occupied territories, and increased international pressure on Russia.
