And I suppose that surrendering the entire country to Russia and having its population deported and dispersed to Siberia would be better?

The Ukrainians have already had that experience. Russians shipped hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians to the Siberian forests where they froze to death in 1939 and 1940.

Ukrainians would rather die free than suffer Russian tyranny again.

“Ukrainians would rather die free than suffer Russian tyranny again.”

As would Poles, and Lithuanians, and Latvians, and Hungarians, and Czechs, and...well, you get the picture.
