  "account": "On October 7, Ukrainian lawmaker Roman Kostenko discussed lawmakers' calls for concessions with Russia and the need for a political war plan. Two members of the Servant of the People parliamentary faction, Danylo Hetmantsev and Oleksii Honcharenko, were reported to support immediate peace negotiations with Russia. Kostenko argued that there were no grounds for reaching an agreement, as Russia did not want to negotiate and would only meet its demands. He criticized Russia's actions, stating they aimed to defeat Ukraine. Kostenko further explained that Russia saw an advantage in the air and used it to pressure civilians. He suggested that people like Hetmantsev and Honcharenko saw the war as a political opportunity and exploited it. The lawmaker emphasized that the Ukrainian people wanted to end the war on terms acceptable to them, including preventing Russian occupation of Ukrainian territories.",
