Answer:
Gandhi likely agrees with passive resistance as the text states, “The consequence is not the progress of a nation but its decline …. No country has ever become, or will ever become, happy through victory in war. A nation does not rise that way; it only falls further. In fact, what comes to it is defeat, not victory. And if, perchance, either our act or our purpose was ill-conceived, it brings disaster to both belligerents.”

The text was not provided and the passage was not located online. However, from the historical records of Mahatma Gandhi, we can infer that
Mahatma Gandhi was an Indian activist who spoke up against various forms of oppression in society.
He spoke against the discrimination by the whites in South Africa and the oppression by the British colonial masters in India.
He preferred the term 'satyagraha' which entails taking hold of the truth in a non-violent manner.
Passive resistance, on the other hand, resists oppression but could resort to violence. Gandhi did not believe in this ideology. He held that since their course was right, they did not need violence even if they were physically attacked by their oppressors.
