Ukraine may have to give up land for peace, Kyiv Mayor Klitschko says

The mayor of Kyiv, Vitali Klitschko, has told the BBC that Ukraine may have to give up land as part of a peace deal with Russia, amid a growing pressure from President Donald Trump to accept territorial concessions.
“One of the scenarios is… to give up territory. It’s not fair. But for the peace, temporary peace, maybe it can be a solution, temporary,” he said.
But the 53-year-old former boxing champion-turned politician stressed that the Ukrainian people would “never accept occupation” by Russia.
He was speaking hours after a Russian missile-and-drone attack on Kyiv killed 12 people and injured more than 80.
It was one of the deadliest Russian assaults on the Ukrainian capital in months.
