This seems like a false dichotomy, Ukraine can surrender as well, as unpopular as it would be. Ukraine has been following the lead of the US, even before the invasion. This has lead them away from any negotiations, right to where they are today.

They tried surrendering to Russia in 2014 and it only got them 8 years of peace before Russia invaded again. How long do you think it'd take next time, 6 years? 4 years?
